Anyone else coughing on Candersarten 2mgs daily?

I am on 32mg I assume that is what you meant, occasionally cough but not regularly

Side effect of Candesarten is a cough for some but you are only on a small dose, if the cough is bad talk to your GP there are many BP tablets that can be taken . You may have a nurse in your practice who can advise too. Tablets are very individual ,as are doses. I can't take candersarten. I once had a freind who took a tablet and never knew it was causing her cough she thought the cough was from her illness. Hope this helps you decide whats best for you.

Could you tell me your reason for not being able to take Candersarten. Was it the cough? Xx

Yes it was one reason the other I can't recall now think it was the breathing, I am down as allergic to it so no one else prescribes it in the surgery. Does that help.? Even the colour of some tablets cause allergic reactions and long term use.

Thank you. Im wondering if taking Omeprezole with it might help counteract my side effect of scratchy throat and cough? I 'll ask doctor but wondered if anyone does that?
