Hi,

Thank you for your query and Welcome to HCM forum.



You are Diabetic and Hypertensive for 15 years and on medication for 10 years.



The most common side effects of Midicardis are feeling of dizziness or passing out, headache, signs of high potassium (slow heart rate, muscle weakness, tingly feeling), cough that does not go away, diarrhea, abdominal pain, nausea etc.



Whereas the side effects of glucophage + onglyza are signs of low blood sugar e.g. anger, shaking, a fast heartbeat, confusion, or sweating; abdominal pain, diarrhea, headache etc.



My personal opinion is you should consult with your physician to change the medication. Never use any anti-hypertensive or anti-diabetic medication without the advice of a doctor as it can become very dangerous.



Hope this helps. Wish your good health.
