Check your lot numbers. Many lots were contaminated with a possible Carcinogen. If you've had it filled since April 2018 its probabably contaminated. Here is a list but to be safe just check with your pharmacist , they can pull it up and give you a yes or no.

I took about 60 days worth, the pharmacy told me to take whats left to the fire dept for disposal. I said yeah right. I'm keeping the evidence.

Also I don't know if there is a correlation but I've been on Valsartan for the past year or so as well as hydrochlorathalidone. For HBP. I told the doctor I was suffering from extreme dry mouth and was having trouble swallowing. He switched me to a single pill Valsartan/HCTZ. 12 days later I was driving, hauling 2 ton boulders to a customer and all of the sudden I completely lost my vision. It only lasted for about 4 seconds but ever since I've had pain in my eyeballs , pain in my head , dizziness, my balance is ****ed up and horrible panic attacks.

I had gone to the pharmacy for a refill and they told me that med had been recalled. I pulled up side affects of this med and those symptoms are all listed. But thats when I learned it was recalled due to a contamination with a known carcinogen. The doc gave me a new med and I said **** that. I'm done with this shit.

The last 6 days I've gone full blown Keto, eat 1 meal a day and working out 3 hours daily, no coffee, no green tea, no alcohol, nothing but water and I've dropped 15 pounds so far. My blood pressure is normal right now and the symptoms are almost gone. If I keep the weight off it'll stay that way.

By the way after investigating , those batches apparently were made in ****ing China. Why in the **** is ANY of our meds coming from China !!!!!!!
