----------------------------------------
EXFORGE is a prescription medication for the treatment of high blood pressure. It may be used when one medicine to lower your high blood pressure is not enough. It may also be used as the first medicine to lower high blood pressure if your doctor decides you are likely to need more than one medicine.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
What is the most important information I should know about EXFORGE?
If you become pregnant, stop taking EXFORGE and call your doctor right away. EXFORGE can harm an unborn baby causing injury and even death. If you plan to become pregnant, talk to your doctor about other treatment options to lower your blood pressure before taking EXFORGE.
Serious side effects could occur such as:
- Low blood pressure (hypotension). Lie down if you feel faint or dizzy and call your doctor right away.
- Worsening chest pain (angina) or heart attack, particularly in patients who already have severe heart disease. Get emergency help if you get worse chest pain or chest pain that does not go away.
- Kidney problems, changes in blood test results for patients with congestive heart failure, or allergic reactions. Call your doctor if you get swelling in your feet, ankles, or hands or unexplained weight gain.
Side effects are usually mild and brief. The most common side effects that occur more frequently with EXFORGE than placebo (sugar pill) are swelling of the hands, ankles, or feet; nasal congestion or sore throat, head or chest cold; and dizziness.
The EXFORGE patients, their physicians, and members of their support network are real and have been compensated for their time.
