High Blood Pressure
"As of today, it&#039;s two weeks since I started taking Benicar 40/12.5mg.  Wow, what an experience.  I don&#039;t take any other medicines for ANYTHING.  I do take vitamins and supplements. My blood pressure now is so great that it helps me deal with the side effects better. I have lightheadedness, spontaneous increase in heart beats, light muscle aches all of these I didn&#039;t have before taking Benicar.  It took at least a week and a half for my system to adjust.  I&#039;ll continue on with it and hopefully after significant weight loss I will come off altogether.  Until then, I&#039;ll take the 123/75 blood pressure any day!"
