Yes please be very careful and consult your doctor asap. I had this side effect and it was due to increased spinal fluid pressure which can kill you. While this med was prescribed to treat this problem in me it made it much worse and before this I had taken hctz alone for years until if gave me fluid in my lungs and interstitial lung problems. I stopped it and this issue went away. Stopping the triam hctz made the spinal fluid pressure go down kind of quickly which wasnt pleasant. Im clearly someone who cannot tolerate these meds. The pain from the spinal fluid began slowly with aching in my legs and bouts of sacroilieitis. then throughout my back then headaches with doublevision then bad neck and spine pain becoming excruciating along with the othe previous problems. I became bedridden. finally spinal fluid started coming out of my nostril. all of this came on slowly. The all over aching made it clear that the spinal fluid in the spine was increased causing pressure in my entire spine.

I think this kind of a reaction is due to something like kidney damage from the drug. please get checked out. I dont know that i will ever be better. These druga are not safe for all.

Hi James,
I saw your post and decided to write to you. I was taking triamterene for a week because of my meniere's disease but it didn't work. I actually fainted last night. I was wondering how long does it take to get it out of your system. Also, I'm a drummer too and have been feeling really tired, light headed and dizziness.

my high blood pressure medication reads Triamterene/Hctz Tabs 37.5/25. I've also been prescribed Lisinopril Tabs 30 Mg. does this sound like a reasonable dosage?

Inne Ear Disturbance is caused by a lack of iodine. This MUST betaken in a natural form, not the car you get from the Drug store or WalMArt etc. eat kelp evey chance you get. Buy the sprinkler, and add it to everything in lieu of salt. Also, take kelp tablets WHOLE FOOD ONLY, 2 twice a day.

I am taking it for swelling in my legs too. If you read it tells you it is for anything your Dr. wants it to be for.

I was prescibed this medication for edema (swollen ankles and legs). I also was experiencing som really nasty leg cramps getting out of bed in the morning and sometimes in the middle of the night. I drink a lot of water, and try to eat at least one banana a day for potassium, but I find that the meds combined with the banana left me constipated. I told my doctor about the side effects and he prescibed some potassiumm(CL10MEQ CRTAB SAND) for the cramps and had me buy some over the counter magnesium (250mg) for the constipation. Since I began taking them I haven't had the unbearable leg cramps and I am much more regular.

Started taking this med 6 days ago & am experiencing
Strong muscle cramp in lower legs & feet, At times very painful. Also dizzy & feel "giddy" all the time. Going to stop taking it immediately. Am 75 yrs old & although take lots of other med nothing else has brought on these new reactions. Just hope it clears my system quickly. Would someone out there tell me me how long it takes? Thank you very much

Dr prescribed this to me in order to dry up fluid that has built up in one of my ears impairing hearing due to congestion and allergies. It is a diarrheatic meaning it absorbs/expels water from the body. So far I've only experienced mild muscle fatigue, but I have been drinking more water than usual. If you're on this be sure to drink lots of water. This will help with the cramps and the constipation. Also if you're experiencing cramps try eating more potassium rich foods such as bananas. You should also cut back on salt, but if you're taking this for high BP you should be doing that anyway

I started taking potassium. It seemed to help with the led and feet cramps so far. Triame/hctz is a generic for Maxide with contains potassium. Additional potassium is not required. It says it on the instructions. Maybe Triamt/hctz doesn't come with potassium.
