Sep 02, 2008 Moderate None Always A little
Advice/Tips Cost
Sep 02, 2008 On a day to day basis I found it had no side effects. Recent DAD study suggests that if you have a moderate to high cardiac risk then may not be wisest drug to take. If your risk is 1% and becomes 2 % then thats OK, but for me I had a brother die age 28 of heart attack and then had one myself 8 months after starting. So for me probably wise with new DAD info to swap. < $25 monthly
