Both alternatives r not usable as cause major blood pressure spikes; been advised by both pharmacist and cardiologist to never try alternative to Benicar as there is no true substitute.

Hello, Laurie! How are you?

It will most likely be several years, yet.

However, there are other medications in this same drug class that are available as generics, such as Losartan and Candesartan, which you could ask your doctor about switching to, if Benicar is too expensive.

The FDA lists the typical side effects of this medication as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, increased urination, dry cough and hypotension.

Is there anything else I can help with?
