I was recently prescribed Triamterene 50mg Capsules for high blood pressure and fluid retention. I've been taking them for about a week now, and I'm curious to hear from others who have taken this medication. Has anyone else experienced any side effects? I'm especially concerned about the potential for kidney problems or electrolyte imbalances. I've read that it can help keep potassium levels stable, which is a plus, but I'm still a bit nervous. If anyone has tips on managing side effects or any general advice, I'd really appreciate it! What are the best strategies to monitor my health while on this medication?
