I was recently prescribed Nicardipine 20mg/200ml IV for high blood pressure, and I'm a bit anxious about potential side effects. The doctor mentioned it could cause dizziness, fatigue, and flushing, but I'm more concerned about the severe side effects like allergic reactions and chest pain. Has anyone here had experience with this medication? I'd love to hear about your experiences, especially if you've dealt with any of the more serious side effects. How did you manage them? Were there any tips or tricks that helped you cope? Also, how long did it take for the side effects to subside? Any input would be greatly appreciated!
