Default cardizem - headache?

I've read that headache can be a side effect taking cardizem. Does anyone get headaches taking this??

I took the generic form of it Diltiazem and yes i did get a headache from it not everyday but if i had been on my feet alot that day i would get one, but as of now i take nothing the doc has tried taking me off my meds because echo shows that the meds are not doing what they had hoped they would do, but if the headaches are really bothering you maybe they could try a different dose. have a good weekend
