My aunt takes Norvasc and I have been researching it. I know it helps with angina (which I have) but I am not sure since its mostly for BP only if it would work for me (since her and I have a fairly large age difference), anyone know? |

Negative Aspects of Norvasc: |
Was not effective |
|
Reason for taking Norvasc: |
High Blood pressure (for elderly woman) |
|
Additional Comments: |
I am sure that many have had great results but reading through the reviews I see that my aunt is not the only one who had issues with this medication not being very effective. My Aunt's blood pressure has put her into the hospital on numerous occasions since starting this medication. Her doctors are just now putting her on something else. |

Positive Aspects of Norvasc: |
Helps control Blood Pressure |
|
Negative Aspects of Norvasc: |
Side Effects Were Bothersome |
|
Reason for taking Norvasc: |
High Blood Pressure |
|
Additional Comments: |
I took Norvasc for approximately two years. Over that period of time, I had chest pains, as well as tingling in my hands and feet. One night I went to the Emergency Room due to excessive overall swelling. They couldn't find any reason for it and suggested that it might be my medication. They explained some of the side effects of Norvasc to me, and I realized that my medication could be causing my chest pains, the swelling and the tingling. I have been off Norvasc for several months and am symptom free. |
