Lotensin HCT 20/25 Tablets: Side Effects, Warnings, and Experiences
I was prescribed Lotensin HCT 20/25 Tablets for high blood pressure and I'm experiencing some unexpected side effects. I know it's a combination of benazepril and hydrochlorothiazide, and I was warned about the potential for dizziness and fatigue, but I'm also dealing with a persistent cough and some stomach pain. Has anyone else had these issues? Are they common or should I be concerned? I've read about the urgent side effects, and while I don't have any of those, I'm still worried. Has anyone had positive experiences with this medication? Any tips for managing the side effects would be appreciated.

This is a water pill, right? I got this dry cough and dizzy spells when I was on it. It's annoying but I was told it goes away after the first few days. If not, I get to switch meds.
This medication saved my life. I was in really bad shape with my blood pressure and Lotensin HCT brought it down. I had a few side effects, but they were worth it. Just be careful and monitor your symptoms closely. The stomach pain can be a sign of something else, so get regular checkups.
I’ve been taking it for a while and I’ve had some stomach pain, but nothing too bad. I think it’s worth it if it helps manage your blood pressure. It’s a bit scary reading about all the possible side effects, but I’m not experiencing them
I've been on Lotensin HCT for a while now and the cough was really annoying at first. It's supposed to go away over time, so I'd give it a bit more time and see how you go, and if it persists, talk to your doctor. I haven't had any urgent side effects, just some dizziness when I first started taking it.
I've heard that this medication can cause some serious side effects. I’ve been relatively lucky so far, but I’m always keeping an eye out for any signs of trouble.
I’m really worried about the skin cancer risk. I didn’t know that was a side effect. I think I’m going to talk to my doctor about switching to something else.
I've had a weird reaction, that one time, my vision got blurry, so I had to stop taking Lotensin. I know the side effects can be really bad, but I think it’s worth it if it helps you
I started Lotensin HCT a few weeks ago and I've had some stomach pain. I didn’t think about it much at first, but it’s been persistent. It makes me so tired too. Is this normal?
I was on this medication for a while and had some pretty bad side effects. I ended up switching to something else because the dizziness and fatigue were just too much to handle. I also had a persistent cough. But everyone is different and it might be worth sticking it out for a bit longer to see if it gets better.
