Hi,I am Dr. Prabhakar Koregol (Cardiologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Blood Pressure 170/80. Prescribed Coversyl. Eyes Are Blurry. Related?
Hi, I went to Shoppers Drug Mart and took my blood pressure and it was 170 over 80. My Dr. put me on coversyl 4 mg. to take once a day and then he mentioned I could also continue to take Apo-Acebutolol 200mgs. twice a day along with Apo-Atorvastatin 10mg. But when I take The coversyl in the morning, my eyes feel weird. Meaning: blurry and makes me try and focus. Only lasts about 10 min.. but uncomfortable.
Dear Ma'm/Sir If it was immediately after taking the drug; I mean instantaneously? or it was after sometime? Although any drug can produce side effects but blurring of vision is not known to occur with coversyl, especially if it occurred immediately after taking drug. I would like you to report this to your doctor and continue the drug under his supervision after discussing with him. Feel free to discuss further. Sincerely Sukhvinder singh
