Hi

I take them for high blood pressure and to prevent optical migraines (migraines with aura). I haven't had any problems. They are only available on prescription.

My cardiologist changed my Losartan (?) to Candesartan 4mg claiming it was a more modern drug. I have taken them for a while now with no side affects. I have no comments about the cilexetil part of the title.
