Been taking Lotrel (at least 5 years), then generic without connecting the dots. Constant back pain, easly fatigued, leg muscle soreness, occasionally a swelling in the inside of the mouth over a couple of days until a layer of skin flakes off and goes away (to return many weeks later), light spotted rash on topside of forearms, muscle weakness in arms with arms elevated, definite loss of sex drive, no endurance, easily prone to heavy sweating, back muscles extremely tight and rigid causing pains when exerting with repeated constant motion, blood work showing muscle damage, possible short term memory issues and ability to concentrate, periods of times with the feeling of constrictions on the body compared to a inflated balloon walls stressed with pressure. Exercise (walking) causes a drop in blood pressure to normal (110-125/68-84) compared to 140/90+/-.
