Q: I usually take 1 Diovan pill but the other day I had to take a second one right before bed to alleviate the tingling and slight throbbing in my hand. Could the summertime heat have anything to do with this? Is tingling in your hand a possible symptom of a developing neuropathy?
A: Diovan is a medicine used to treat high blood pressure. You should only take it as it is prescribed. Don’t assume any change in your body is caused by the heat of the summer. Go see your doctor when you develop new symptoms. There are many causes of hand tingling other than a pure neuropathy. Examples include conditions like arthritis of the neck, carpal tunnel syndrome, hyperventilation, and an allergic reaction.
