FAQs About High Blood Pressure

If I can’t feel high blood pressure, is it really a problem?
Yes. High blood pressure affects every system in your body, starting with your arteries. Healthy arteries are able to stretch to allow blood to flow easily. Over time, the continued force of the blood on the arteries causes them to stretch beyond healthy limits, causing damage. Examples of damage could include the weakening and scarring of the blood vessels, or organ damage caused by lack of oxygen due to narrow arteries restricting blood flow.1
I’ve just been told I have resistant hypertension. What does that mean?
Resistant hypertension is when you are taking a diuretic (“water pill”) and at least 2 other blood pressure medicines, and you’re still not able to lower your blood pressure.2
What can I do to help manage resistant hypertension?
It is important to take your medicines the way your doctor has explained. Other ways to manage hypertension could include:
  • Eat a healthy diet, including fruits and vegetables.3
  • Cut down on salt. Stay away from salty processed foods and read labels to see how much sodium is included.3
  • Exercise more to lose weight and improve your overall health.3
  • Reduce the amount of alcohol intake.3
  • Reduce stress.3
What’s the difference between blood pressure and heart rate?
Heart rate is the number of times your heart beats a minute.4 Blood pressure is the force of the blood in your arteries as your heart pumps blood through your body.4 Measuring your heart rate doesn’t tell you anything about your blood pressure. During exercise, your heart rate may go up, but that doesn’t mean your blood pressure goes up, too.4 The only way to tell if your blood pressure is high is to take a reading.5
If my blood pressure readings are lower for a while, can I stop taking my medicine?
No. Even if you feel fine, you should NEVER stop taking blood pressure medications, skip doses, or make any changes at all without consulting your doctor.6 Why? Any change in your medication has the potential to dramatically and suddenly change your blood pressure, which can be dangerous.7 If your blood pressure readings are normal, this means your management plan is working—so keep taking all of your prescribed medications to keep it working.6 If you’ve made lifestyle changes or other changes, talk with your doctor about possible adjustments to your blood pressure management plan.6
What’s the difference between EDARBI and EDARBYCLOR?
EDARBI® (azilsartan medoxomil) contains an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB). ARBs help relax your blood vessels, which allows your blood to flow more freely and lowers blood pressure. Some people need more than one medicine to lower their numbers. EDARBYCLOR® (azilsartan medoxomil/chlorthalidone) combines the same ARB as EDARBI with a diuretic (“water pill”) called chlorthalidone. This combination helps relax your blood vessels and flush out extra fluid in your body.8,9

INDICATIONS

EDARBI is a prescription medicine used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension) in adults and EDARBYCLOR is a prescription medicine used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension). Your doctor may prescribe other medicines for you to take along with EDARBI or EDARBYCLOR to treat your high blood pressure. EDARBYCLOR is used when one medicine is not enough or as the first medicine if your doctor decides you are likely to need more than one medicine. Medicines that lower your blood pressure may lower your chances of having a stroke or heart attack, but they don’t work alone. They should be part of a complete treatment plan.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

WARNING: EDARBI® and EDARBYCLOR® can cause harm or death to your unborn baby. If you become pregnant while taking EDARBI or EDARBYCLOR, tell your doctor right away. If you plan to become pregnant, talk to your doctor about other treatments to lower blood pressure.
  • Before taking EDARBI or EDARBYCLOR, tell your doctor if you are breastfeeding or plan to breastfeed. Discuss with your doctor other ways to lower your blood pressure. Breastfeeding while taking EDARBI or EDARBYCLOR is not recommended.
  • Do not take EDARBYCLOR if you make less urine because of kidney problems (anuria).
  • Do not take aliskiren-containing products with EDARBI or EDARBYCLOR if you have diabetes.
  • Tell your doctor about all your medical conditions, including if you have heart problems or stroke, have gout, or have liver or kidney problems. Kidney problems may become worse in people that already have kidney disease. If you have kidney problems, you may need blood tests, and your doctor may need to lower your dose or may need to stop treatment with EDARBYCLOR. During treatment with EDARBI or EDARBYCLOR, certain people who have severe heart failure, narrowing of the artery to the kidney, or who lose too much body fluid such as with nausea, vomiting, bleeding, or trauma, may develop sudden kidney failure and in rare instances, death.
  • Tell your doctor about all the medicines you take, including prescription and nonprescription medicines, vitamins, and herbal supplements. Especially tell your doctor if you take other medicines to treat your high blood pressure or heart problem; water pills (diuretics); lithium; or digoxin.
  • EDARBI and EDARBYCLOR may cause serious side effects, including low blood pressure (hypotension) which may cause you to feel faint or dizzy. Vomiting and diarrhea, a low salt diet, sweating a lot, or not drinking enough fluid can also lead to low blood pressure.
  • If you feel faint or dizzy, lie down and call your doctor right away. If you pass out (faint), have someone call your doctor or get medical help. Stop taking EDARBYCLOR.
  • If you have fluid and body salt (electrolyte) problems, tell your doctor if you experience any of the following symptoms: dry mouth, confusion, thirst, lack of energy (lethargic), weakness, drowsiness, passing very little urine or passing large amounts of urine, seizures, muscle pain/cramps, restlessness, muscle tiredness (fatigue), fast or abnormal heartbeat, nausea and vomiting, or constipation.
  • People who have increased levels of uric acid in the blood may develop gout. If you already have gout, tell your doctor about worsening of your gout symptoms.
  • In clinical studies, the most common side effect seen with EDARBI was diarrhea (2.0%).
  • In a clinical study, the side effects seen with EDARBYCLOR included dizziness (8.9%) and tiredness (2.0%).
