No such side effects were noticed so far but is it safe to take for life long? Reply From this study (4 days ago): I tried to modify my first report but couldn't t so I must add that my main problem at this point is low blood pressure. my range is now between 103-to 110 high and my low is 60 -75. Pulse varies from 47 to 60.I also have arrhythmia which I think is due to excessive dehydration under physical exercise because of the medication zestortetic which is also a 2 way medication one being water reduction. I am not sure if this low pressure is what causes me to be fatigue all the time and no resistance to physical work. when I do well my blood pressure is up in the 130,s. so I assume that's part of the problem. My doctor is worried about the combination of Celebrex and Coumadin but no adverse reaction as of yet. In fact Celebrex fixed my back completely and did not alter my INR and stools are normal. Because of my doctors concerns my intake of Celebrex was reduced to 100 mgs in the morning and 100 mgs at night. My back pain returned and is severe. I am looking for an alternative. I must add that my low blood pressure happened after an arrhythmia episode and never returned to normal. Reply From this study (4 days ago): My assumption is that when I train at the gym or work physically hard and sweat the zestoretic which is part water eliminator is too much. I assume blood pressure and water retention in my case should be separate. My doctor has concerns with celebrex and Coumadin but I have not seen any change in the inr because of it and no stomach or bleeding in the stools.This Celebrex really does wonders for me. I take the 200 mg in the morning and 200 at night. The 100mg Celebrex is not strong enough to be effective. Reply From this study (6 days ago): Headaches start in the AM when meds are taken and continues(off and on) for the remainder of the day/night until I go to sleep. Reply From this study (2 weeks ago): Ive been taking Allopurinol for about a year and i noticed a significant drop in my weight.Prior to allopurinol i was 145 pounds and now im roughly about 131 pounds.My water intake daily is about 12 16 ounce glasses of water and i eat a little less.Could that be the reason why ive lost that much weight?
