| 1 | Blood Pressure | STARTED DEVELOPING EXTREME ABDOMINAL PAIN ABT 4 days after meds WHICH EVENTUALLY LED TO ULCERS AND A STOMACH INFECTION. Now it has led to gall stones which require another surgery from these meds. 2nd surgery on stomach since started meds. DO NOT TAKE THESE MEDS | F | 34 | 1 years 10 mg | 12/23/2013 | 1 | hypertension (high blood pressure) | All I can say is that this drug has caused some serious side effects. Heart palpitations, overall yuck feeling. I was on toporol xl and honestly going back until something better comes along. | F | 39 | 2 days 20mg | 12/8/2013 | 1 | hypertension (high blood pressure) | All I can say is that this drug has caused some serious side effects. Heart palpitations, overall yuck feeling. I was on toporol xl and honestly going back until something better comes along. | F | 39 | 2 days 20mg | 12/8/2013 | 1 | High bp | Both feet numb , walking up a few steps I have to stop to get my breath and let my heart slow down. This drug is dangerous. If you are taking off them wean for a long time or you may not like the results. I've been weaning now for 2 months and I'm on the 2.5 mg. and can't wait till get this poison out if my system. Stay clear of this one if you have problems taking medications. | M | 50 | 2 years 10 mg | 11/28/2013 | 1 | pvc's | Started off OK. Then woke up on 4th day to chest pain. I have had many things happen to me in my life...anxiety, panic attacks, acid reflux,low blood sugar, skipped heart beats which I will never get used to but I have NEVER had chest pain. I felt like I could not breath. My upper chest felt like it was in a vise. I thought oh its just my job in salon working with my arms. But it got worse the next day. I was not doing anything and this crushing pressure scared the hell out of me. Will never take this again. I know it was the meds. I just had an echo last week and they said all normal. I never want to feel that pain again. | F | 56 | 6 days 2.5 | 11/24/2013 | 1 | heart stents & hypertension | Makes me feel weak,shortness of breath,legs & ankle swollen, dizzy,and it made my Peter retire from active duty. | M | 54 | 4 days 10 mg. | 10/31/2013 | 1 | HBP | Stopped taking Metroprolol because of hair loss but remained on Norvasc. Pulse became rapid. Told by another dr. that Norvasc should be taken with a beta blocker to control pulse. Given Bystolic and was told it has fewer side effects. Within about 2 weeks I began with a cough that I thought was due to a post nasal drip. Inhaling would cause a "tickle" like feel from my chest and a cough. It was getting worse. Finally after speaking to the pharmacist and researching I saw it could be caused by Bystolic. Went to dr. for a change. This is a horrible drug. It affects receptors in the lungs and they have the gall to say they don't know what it does to cause a cough. I only pray this clears. I was told it should clear in about 4 days. It's 5 days now and still no change. | Expensive med with potentially devastating effects. If this continues, I'm thinking CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT!! | F | 56 | 2 months 5 1X day | 10/30/2013 | 1 | high blood pressure, high pulse | Side effects started 6 months after i started taking bystolic, i have traveled from doctor to doctor, got brain MRI, and alot of other tests, but after all it was all bystolic side effects. This drug is slowly killing your system, posion every cell of your body. It should be BANNED from market. Now after almost 4 years of misery i switched to bisoprolol I hope, Bystolic side effects will fade. | M | 31 | 4 years 3,5 1X day | 10/26/2013 Patient History | 1 | Extremely High Blood Pressure | Since Ive been taking this med, Ive been getting jittery, shaky, migraine headaches, dizzy and this overall sick feeling. My PC started me off with 10mg of Bystolic. Later after being hospitalized, it was reduced to 2.5mg. I'm still having the same terrible side effects. Are there any safe BP meds out there that aren't so hard on our bodies. I feel that these drugs companies aren't considering what these poisons are doing to our bodies but only the bottom lines. I'm sick of the dizziness and the feeling tired all of the time. I've been cutting the dose in half and I am still having bad side effects. I will get off of the medication as soon as I see my doctor and I prayer that I will not feel harsh effects from stopping this drug. It's junk. | F | 56 | 5 days 2.5 | 9/2/2013 | 1 | high blood pressure | worked great no side effects or so I thought. was slowly killing me ended up in er thought I was dying shortness of breath total dark feeling dizzy lethargic lazy tired dr had me cut back I started doing every other day soon realized I could breath on days I wasn't taking so quit altogether and starting to feel much better I think it slowly poisons your system | M | 59 | 3 years 5 mg 1X day | 8/22/2013 | 1 | BP | shortness of breath chest pains weird dreams | M | 56 | 5mg 1X day | 8/15/2013 | 1 | a/fib | swollen painful knee....veins in both legs swollen....pain top of feet...limping now..legs feel heavy..no energy | my doc wants me to stay on it...there must be another med with less side effects | F | 72 | 3 months 10mg 1X day | 8/2/2013 | 1 | To lower blood pressure | Erectile dysfunction, bowel incontience, tired chest Hirt | M | 53 | 4 months 5 mg | 7/19/2013 | 1 | Hypertension /high blood pressure | Shortness of breath, numbness in hands and feet, tired all the time, low heart rate, legs feel very heavy and hurts and major headaches.....this is not good it made me feel horrible!!! | F | 45 | 8 days 10 | 5/31/2013 | 1 | For racing heart | Started with depression and ringing in ears. Then went to mood swings with a sudden outburst in public. I have been taken off thank God. I'm back on metropolol | F | 64 | 1 months 10 mg | 4/4/2013 | 1 | BP-Palpataion Post Cardiac Ablation | M | 63 | 5 months 10 1X day | 3/26/2013 | 1 | hypertension | palpitations, dizziness, sinus oroblems, lethargy, gas | M | 38 | 6 months 5mg | 3/4/2013 | 1 | High blood pressure | It lowered the BP! I am allergic to ALL other beta blockers, as well as many other drugs. I am a RENAL FAILURE patient, stage 4, prepping for dialysis soon. This drug should NOT have been given to me, it caused a decline almost immediate in my renal function. I also have CHF, diabetic on insulin, asthma, Edema and have had anaphylaxis in hosp from meds. Also have the ringing in ears, swollen throat. Everything i read, says i should NOT have been given this. Yet the cardiologist gave to me, says take more asthma inhaler. ! i had a major attack this morning, my peak flow meter for asthma was at 125 breathing. i should be at 350. ! I began the taper this morning to 5mg, perhaps the asthma attack from this. i also am very shaky. Blood sugars are whacky and showing low then i eat and the insulin doesnt work and i shoot up too high. Now i have a bad headache, cant drive out becuz too shaky and the asthma is bad. Ive had to be hospitalized for asthma issues in the past, this is as bad as one | I have written to many diff places regarding this drug as i intend to continue to do so. I feel the dr s who prescribe this drug should have his license removed ! without checking renal function in a kidney patient, prescribes med that will LOWER function. This dr was not a good dr! I can get better drugs off the street. | F | 59 | 4 months 10mg 1X day | 2/8/2013 | 1 | Hypertension | difficulty breathing | I tried this drug once before about a year ago and apparantly forgot why I stopped taking it - for certain, it is causing the symptoms I am experiencing after being back on it for just two days, as they are exactly the same as before, only worse. I have episodes of difficulty breathing - not lung difficulty - but the feeling that something is actually squeezing my heart, preventing me to breath. I do the treadmill elevated for an hour a day, do hand weights, swim, and am active in other sports, so when I get short of breath climbing one flight of stairs, it is the medicine - just last week I went up three flights at the mall to the amazement of my friend who is younger than me. I have constant thirst, ringing in my ears, and upon waking up, was very dizzy for the first 2 hours of the day. Bystolic did lower my bp, and I could put up with all but the actual feeling of not being able to breath - I truly feel like my heart is in a vise at times. Definitely not worth it - I hate this drug and will lose weight and go back on my weight watchers diet rather than struggle for breath. I can't believe I tried it twice - what's the saying fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me. I am disposing of it today and stopping it abruptly even though it says otherwise, my primary care doc said it would be ok to do so. | F | 59 | 2 days 5 MG 1X day | 1/25/2013 | 1 | High Blood Pressure | Severe migraine behind my eyes and achy sore body & severe back pain. | I took this pill for the first time to help my BP of 140/100. I took it at night so I wouldn't feel or notice any side effects. I woke up up with a migraine (feels like I got hit with a bat on the back of my neck) at 5am and 12 hours later, my head and body are sore and I'm only able to move like a 90 year old (but I'm still young). I never get headaches, my eyes never hurt like this and this is the 4th prescription I try. Keep in mind I normally feel great and sleep fine. I exercise & eat right but high BP runs in the genes. There is no way, no how I would take this again just to feel like crap. Pharmaceutical companies are just putting out junk. Don't take this stuff if it makes you feel worse. | F | 1 days 5 1X day | 12/29/2012 |
