Blows me up!
Taking a diuretic helps.
So I was on 50 mg for 5 days and then my doctor wanted to see what I like on a lighter dose as a taper for a couple weeks. I never felt better. I wasn't coughing up stuff and I was less breathless.

Has anyone (that's been on this medication) had success getting rid of the headache that goes along with it????
