User Reviews for Diovan oral

Immediate results; feeling better for a week now

This medication has leveled my blood pressure to normal between 115/125 over 65/85 on a consistent bases down from 140/150 over 90/100. I have not had any side effects from taking this mediaction of 80mg.

This medication did not make any difference in bp. I'm on 320mg. My doctor says to stay on it, it's helpful in combination with my other meds.

I took Diovan for nearly 2 months and noticed I had more hair in my hairbrush and my beautician said my hair which had been strong and thick was now softer but very fine. My doctor changed me to Benicar so I hopefully will see a pleasant change and not lose any more hair.

I take it after or during meal time.I do get have small headaches.

I started Diovan after having bad GI side effects with Avalide. Same problems with this one, severe heart burn and GI pain like I have an ulcer. It hurt when I ate, hurt worse when I didn't eat, so wound up gaining weight. had to go back on antacids but little help with the pain. My BP after 4 weeks did come down somewhat but was not worth the side effects.

I wish there was a genric for diovan.

my BP 122/78, but have severe bone,joint and back pain.

Was alittle weird at first but seems to be fine now.But I have only been on it for one month.

It controls my BP in the low end 130/70 but after 1 1/2 mons. I am getting joint pain in various areas. Has anyone else experienced this?

Not effective on my bp. Another Dr. added another drug,finally found one that seems to work for me,Metoprolol.

My twin brother was taking this medicine for about two months, while I was taking benicar with no side affects. After those two months he experienced alopecia as a side affect from it, this is when you lose all the hair on your body. His doctor told him to immediately discontinue taking Diovan oral. Now he's waiting for the bald spot in the back of his head to grow back.

After taking Diovan, I've had a great reduction in sexual desire/ability and noticed a big difference in stamina, I have none. It may be just me, but the coinsidence is to great.?? Am I wrong, or what?? I'm always tired. My doctor tells me it me.

i HAVE TRIED SEVERAL BP MEDICINES WITH REACTIONS TO THEM ALL. tHIS SEEMED TO BE DIFFERENT, BUT AFTER 2 1/2 MONTHS STARTED HAVING dIARHEA AND SLIGHT HEADACHES. bEGINNING TO THINK THESE ARE REACTIONS. ANY ONE HAVE THIS PROBLEM??

Since my local pharmacy has been replaced with Kinney Drugs my 80mg is no longer treating my condition. A good friend has also needed her prescription changed to get her pressure under control. Today my BP is 190/90 and next week I'll return to my Dr. Has many experienced any med problems like ours?
