I’d swear we had a previous metoprolol thread within the last 4 weeks.
I remember commenting that is was some 1980s drug technology. I dont know of anyone on digitalis but JFC on here with Podunk medical, who knows. Probably still installing Dalkon shields in Billings.

What else do you take for it? Beta blockers aren’t first-line agents for hypertension. “ Beta blockers aren't recommended as a first treatment in people who have only high blood pressure. Beta blockers aren't usually prescribed for high blood pressure unless other medications, such as diuretics, haven't worked well. Also, a doctor may prescribe a beta blocker as one of several medications to lower blood pressure. Beta blockers may not work as effectively for black people and older people, especially when taken without other blood pressure medications. Beta blockers are used to prevent, treat or improve symptoms in people who have: Irregular heart rhythm (arrhythmia) Heart failure Chest pain (angina) Heart attacks Migraine Certain types of tremors”

Triple bypass Jan of 17 and doc has me on 12.5 mg a day. In the beginning got light headed if I got up off the floor to fast and that seems to be the only side effect that I had. Was told it was a rev limiter also. Doc says the 12.5 mg is just short of a why bother. During intense work I feel off for a moment then My pulse settles down to work mode and no issues. Did a strenuous climb with some friends after a slow start I found myself able to keep up with the youts 20 years my junior and ahead of half them sorry ass 40-50 year olds.

I started taking it yesterday.
Anyone on it? Yes It's a beta blocker, restricts my heartrate like a governor on a car engine when working out or doing some serious exertion. I feel like I hit a brick wall. THIS! I've been on it about a year, and I second this! also combined with some types of blood pressure meds, you can kiss the days of erections goodbye.

Not an issue here but do know a few men that report the issue.

Couple of years for tachycardia/ PVC’s. No problems here. It does make it easier to go to sleep and remain asleep.

Not sure the dose, but have taken it for years.
I'm like aj300mag. Keeps my heart rate low.
Wasn't told to avoid it before a stress test, they wore my arse out
trying to get my heart rate up. It would not go up.
So they did a chemical one.
PS you never want a chemical stress test.
It was bad cop, interrogating someone, terrifying.
I was seriously making deals with God!

I take it for Essential Tremors. Helps keep my hands from shaking. One pill per day is normal. If I am hunting/shooting I take 2 in the morning and 2 at lunch. Really helps me hold steady
Some mornings, it just does not feel worth it to chew through the straps!~

I was recently prescribed metoprolol as a jsut in case med. I have had 2 episodes of SVT this year and that is where to doc wants to go. SVT sucks, took the jolt to break the first one and chemically converted the second time.

Made me tired, bad. I quit smoking and BP settled down. I came back to life after I quit that one, I was on 4 different meds for a while, over weight, stressed and a chain smoker...just take a water pill now.

Whatever you take, just make sure you take it.
Compliance is one of the biggest problems doctors face.

I skip my morning isosorbide dinitrate/hydralizine if I’m climbing trees or ladder stands. I don’t head out with waffles, hashbrowns, eggs, sausage and gravy at 0500 on my gut.
So my stomach is empty,
Rather my vena cava be rigid when I’m 16ft up. That iso makes me loopy
I don’t know who dafuk eats all dat sheeit or has time to when trying to beat the sunrise.
