Can Vimovo, Crestor, Flomax And Avapro Cause Dizziness?
I take Vimovo, Crestor, Flowmax and Avapro and am experiencing regular dizzy spells which I did not have prior to adding the Avapro to my daily intact. Is this normal or is this occurring due to some interaction of the various drugs my body is absorbing?

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
Avapro (irbesartan) can be associated with dizziness, it is one of the possible side effects.
Since the dizziness didn't start till you started the avapro then this the likely cause.
You should discuss this with your doctor.
There are other medications that can be used instead of the avapro. In this same family of drugs, there is telmisartan, valsartan, candesartan
I hope this helps
