While I didn't have the ACE cough, I did indeed experience severe vertigo while on Accupril. It was so bad I had to discontinue it. Just about 8 months ago my GP put me on Diovan which is an ARB due to my blood pressure creeping up and, of course, for the kidney protection. I was very hesitant to do go on the Diovan due to the problems I had years ago with the Accupril. Surprisingly, I have had no problems with the Diovan. Oh, like you Mich, I also take a beta blocker as well...
