Hi, I had gone through your query and understand your concerns.

Hydralazine 50mg. is given to reduce high blood pressure. Its a good medication and can be used along with other drugs. But if you have any side effects like pounding/fast heartbeat, loss of appetite, nausea, vomiting,head ache(other than your already existing migraine), diarrhea, or dizziness may occur as your body adjusts to the medication. If any of these effects persist or worsen, tell your doctor.
Remember that your doctor has prescribed this medication because he or she has judged that the benefit to you is greater than the risk of side effects. Many people using this medication do not have serious side effects.
Hope this helps you. Thank you
