after starting Diovan HCT 160 mg. it reduced my bp from over 150/90 to around 120/76- this went on for about a month, but now my bp keeps creeping up again to over 138/85 or 145/88, etc. But I have no side effects.
why is that?

I have been on Diovan, 80 mg. for almost 3 weeks now. I was taken off of lisinopril due to a terrible cough which was getting worse by the day. My cough is almost gone now, but I have been having a real problem with flatulence since I started the Diovan. I also take Lipitor, and I think the combination of the two drugs may be the issue. Back to the doctor, I guess. I would like to be able to go out in public. I've tried Beano to no avail. But on the positive side, my blood pressure is fine now!
