   Has anyone here ever taken Ziac? (High & Low Blood Pressure board)

20th October 2005
Hi,

Yes, I've taken Ziac before, and had no side effects other than dry mouth. Had no sexual dysfunction at all. I also had a friend who was on it, and it caused her to become dehydrated, but her dr. just told her to drink more water and fluids. I'm on Toprol now, but I don't like it as much as I did the Ziac, and am thinking about having my dr. switch me back to Ziac. I'm on a beta blocker for BAD symptoms with Mitral Valve Prolapse.

Anyway, that's all I noticed when I was on it. Also, I remember losing weight on it.

Hello Mellie310,

You are a female? sorry I don't know much about the American names. I want to know that because Ziac effects the Sexual ability of males of than females.
Thanks,
Michael

nativewalk,

Since Ziac is a combination beta blocker and thiazide diuretic, the potential for erectile dysfunction is high.
I've never taken that particular combination.

I think that a couple months should certainly clear up any problems caused by the drugs unless you've taken them for a VERY long time. But everyone is different.

LOL, I took them for like 15-16 months. Think it could take over a year to clear up? Im not sure if im cleared up or not yet,lol. I know alot of people who take ziac dont get any sexual side effects at all, maybe its all in my head. Thanks for the support everyone.
