Karvezide

I had taken Karvea 300 for three years before it became ineffective and my blood pressure started to rise.My general practitioner prescribed Karvezide 300/12.5 and after a short while I recorded normal blood pressure.
I always experienced a dry mouth and at times did feel quite tired with mood swings evident.However,after two years on this medication I started to experience pain in the lower back area which was dismissed after x-rays revealed sacrilisation of L5.
I endured this pain for another year during which I also started experiencing pain in the ankles and other joints - to the point where I had difficulty walking.I knew something was wrong as I was always in good health and am in my late 50s.A cardiac specialist took me off this medication and in the first week I immediately noticed an improvement in the pain being reduced.I am looking forward to it improving further and hope I have not caused any long term problems.My reason to post this is to simply warn people not to delay in getting an alternative medication if you feel you ar experiencing something unusual.

Extreme dizziness, fatigue, and weakness of muscles - Karvezide 300/25 is perhaps too strong for me as I have no problems as yet on the lesser dose 300/12.5.

When my blood pressure dropped to the stage it left me dizzy I alternated to Karvea and monitored the BP. However it began to go above the recognised 'safe' limit so I resumed Karvezide.
I have not noticed any unusual side effects. Weight gain probably due to retiring from the Workforce and not taking enough exercise. I must do something about that!

Although Karvezide controlled my hypertension, it leaves me with dry mouth and I find it difficult to sleep well during the nights, so my doctor switched me back to Karvea. After switching for 2 days, I already notice the increase in my blood pressure, but so far I am sleeping well now.

I have developed an itchy red rash on my face over the last two years for which I have not been able to find a cause. I now think it may be from taking calcium and vitamin D combination tablets for Osteoporosis together with my Karvazide medication.

i have

i need an answer to my prodlem

i have a very itchy rash evrtywhere only since the dr increased the strength

i have been on karvizide for 3 years but 4 mths ago the dr increased the strength could this cause a very itchy rash

I MUST BE ONE OF THE LUCKY ONES. I HAVE BEEN ON KARVEZIDE & NOTEN FOR OVER TEN YEARS & HAVE NO SIDE EFFECTS FROM THEM (THAT I KNOW OF). I WHAVE HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE.

so far i have only had headaches for the first few days of taking the tablet, i seem to have lost a bit of fluid weight but feeling extremely tired after 10 days treatment

karvezide makes me go frequently to the bathroom
I was on karvea before and was no sideaffects.

taking the karveside makes me  felling hungery all the time

Ive been taking Karvezide for high blood pressure for about 3 months and during this time I have been experiencing heart burn and occasional inability to swallow.  Lately the condition has become a daily occurance, very severe and lasting for hours.  I reported it to dr who has given me a referral to take an endoscopy but has increased my dosage of Karvezide as blood pressure still high.  Can you tell me if heartburn can be a side effect of Karvezide?  I dont really want to go for endoscospy and have never suffered heartburn previously.
