If the ziac causes daily headaches all day long you CANNOT continue to take it no matter WHAT your doctor says.

There are MANY different drugs for treating high blood pressure. When one causes a serious side effect, the appropriate response is to replace it NOT add to it.

That might be good advice to discuss with your doctor, but you should NOT stop taking any prescribed medication based solely on info in a message board-- you need to work with your doctor on whatever is prescribed, and report effects to the doc until you are heard (or change docs).

This board is not a doctor!
