My neighbor just started on a different blood pressure drug, and had to get a quick prescription for a diuretic too -- her feet were swelling something fierce!
FWIW: I'm on Diovan and haven't had any of those issues. But your milage may vary, of course. I don't recall if I started on a different drug, or used this straight off. The web says "Usual dosage ranges from 40–320 mg daily." I'm on 320, in the form of a 160mg tablet both morning and evening.
Good luck in finding the best choice for you!
