i find these meds helpful the onlt trouble is they can cause nasty side effects with tummy ulcers ect. so it is a catch 22 need them for one thing cause upset in other areas. I sometimes take them every other day to give my tummy a rest I also take frusemide from fluid retention from all the medications.
