I've been on Cardizem for about 6 months and I feel like it's really helped control my blood pressure, but I was put on a lower dose than yours. Maybe you could ask your doctor to try a lower dose if the side effects are too bad?
Side effects are rough, but sticking with it has been worth it for me. Just remember to stay hydrated and listen to your body. It's important to find the right balance. Hang in there!
I switched to Cardizem from a different medication, and it's been a game-changer. I used to have severe chest pain, but it's been much better since starting this.
I had a bad experience with Cardizem. I developed a weird rash and had to stop taking it. Definitely consult your doctor right away if you notice any allergic reactions.
Cardizem was a lifesaver for me. I used to have frequent angina attacks, but now they're rare. Just make sure to follow your doctor's advice and keep an eye on your heart rate.
I've been on Cardizem for a few years now. It's helped manage my angina really well, but I did have some issues with dizziness at first. Make sure to talk to your doctor about adjusting the dosage if you're feeling lightheaded. Also, keeping a log of your blood pressure readings can be super helpful.
