Norvasc and headache

I have only been taking the generic form of Norvasc for about a week, and I can't take it anymore, as I have to drive to work, and was unable to while I was on it. I was very dizzy, had a red, hot to the touch face constantly, only wanted to sleep all the time, my legs feel so heavy, have a headache, and am very depressed and anxious. Also had stomach pains, and nausea. How can they expect people who have to go to work everyday to take that stuff? It is not a good drug, unless all you need to do is sleep all day!

My experience with Norvasc is headache, stomach pains, depression, and nausea, frequent urination, and my chest feels very heavy about 15 minutes after I've taken the pill.

I agree with some of you I am taking 5mg and I am always having headaches and Hot Flashes I feel hot all the time and Upset stomach too.

when I first started taking it 5 years ago I was always tired and always had a headache. Those symptoms disappeared after a few days. Now it doesn't work anymore. BP was 161/114 even at 10mg. Had to switch to a beta blocker. Norvasc should only be used for mild hypertension

Dizzy and pressure headache which was very strong at first. Over a two month period these side effects got slowly a little better, but never went away entirely. I switched from taking it in the morning to taking it early afternoon and that seemed to help.
