  3. Hi,

    I was put on Irbesartin a few years ago and tried to tell the consultant that one of the side effects was a persistant cough and that I couldn't risk it. But she persuaded me to try a small dose. I dont think I had any more coughing from that than I usually do. But then I developed low blood pressure and am on half a tablet, which is supposed to help protect the kidneys.
