I have been taking maxide for over 10 years. Shortly after I began taking it I developed a rash on my face that was more like loss of pigmentation. Over the last several years it has gotten worse and began to spread to other parts of my body. I have had 8 biopsies, seen at least 12 different dermatologist all with no resolution. Recently I stopped taking maxide for two weeks because of a problem with my potassium level and miraculously, the pigmentation on my face began to come back. Unfortunately, I was put back on maxide to control my blood pressure because it was very effective and my doctor didn't want to experiement with too many other medications if it was working.

Anyone else had anything like this happen?

My doctor added Maxide to lower my blood pressure. He said
it could cause some muscle cramps, if it did, just take half the pill.
I have had hair loss. I have numbness and tingling in my hands , legs and feet usually in the morning, when I wake up.
A couple of days ago, I noticed a red rash on my left ankle. It looks like I have been bitten by something, but it doesn't itch.

i have been taking generic maxide for about 10 years. i was given it because of swelling in my ankles. now i still swell, but have had a strange itching kind of rash on my breasts for a couple of years. it drives me crazy and no one seems to know what it is. is it possible that it could have something to do with this drug? and is there anything else i could take for the edema. if i stop the drug i swell so bad in my legs that i cant function. i would appreciate any info you could give me. i have asked several doctors about the long term use of maxide and they say it is harmless.
