I HAVE BEEN TAKING THIS DRUG FOR 9 MONTHS. IN THE BEGINNING IT CAUSED A HEADACHE WHICH IT MADE HARD TO SLEEP. I TALKED TO MY DOCTOR AND HE CUT THE DOSAGE IN HALF. THE HEADACHE SUBSIDED AND AFTER 3 MONTHS I WENT BACK TO NORMAL DOSAGE AND HAVE BEEN WITHOUT HEADACHE SINCE. I HAVE NOT EXPERIENCED ANY OF MY CHEST PAIN WHAT SO EVER AND HIGHLY RECOMENED THIS DRUG.

My angina was severe and went from my chest through to my back, up my neck, lower jaw and head. This have helped a great deal and allowed more oxygen as I am feeling stronger and more active than in weeks.

I had severe shortness of breath with minimal exertion and some tightening in the chest. When I started taking it, my symptoms stopped immediately.

I get severe headaches when taking this medication. Pain-reliver/aspirin doesn't even phase the headache.
