After 5 years of taking Micardis, I read that it could be the cause of my Interstitial Cystitis (IC). DR stopped it & pain in bladder has subsided, but still have urethral burning. How long will it take for the Micardis to leave my system? I am now taking Clonidine I mg bid for BP. with some side effects from this med. ## Hello, Kermit! How are you?

How long ago did you stop the Micardis? Depending on how long you were taking it, it may take several weeks.

I would like to know how people are reacting to name brand Micardis 40 mg? I just started and am not sure if the side effects will get better over time.

I took my 80mg of micardis at 9:30 and accidentally again at 10. In total I have had 160 mg within a span of 10 hrs. What should I do? ## Hello, Robyn! How are you?

Hi there. I have been taking Zuvamor 20 for the past 12 days. Today is the worst day I have had. I feel exhausted have no energy and is a effort to walk or do anything. My back muscles are aching, and at times I feel a bit confused. these symptoms have got worse over the last two days. Could it be the Zuvamor. I am also on Micardis 80mg hexablock 30 mg and clift which I have been on for years. Thank you for your time
