Hi, Thanks for using HCM.
Edarbyclor is a medication to lower blood pressure. Dose requirement depends on your blood pressure control. General weakness is seen in few patients, commonly those who have electrolyte imbalance. Get blood electrolyte levels done. Consult your doctor for correction.
Hope this helps you.
