| 4 | Svt | I'm not sure I have a lot that could be due to the metoporol the doc is saying it's not unheard of to start having side effects years down the road I'm struggling with recent palpitations as well so maybe it's not as effective anymore either | I have to say for the last ten years it's krpt me from having hardly any svt attacks where I was having them constantly before I started taking a beta blocker | F | 31 | 10 years 25 3xd | 4/24/2017 | 4 | Tachycardia | started having Tach more frequently, exactly the times I take the medicine rather than 3 or 4 times a weak. | Keep watch on BP if taking meds for that as well. | F | 54 | 7 years 50 mg 2pd | 4/14/2017 | 4 | High blood presdure | Within an hour of taking it, I start to get fatigued and many times doze off. This is even in the morning after I just get up! I don't dare take it and then drive! It's about the 6th hbp med I tried, so have to stick with it. | F | 57 | 3 years 50th x 2 | 4/7/2017 | 4 | Blood pressure taken since heartatt | 18 years I've taken meds. I have taken others but I believe now I do feel like a nerve jerks in left temple i have cornary arties desease am 47. At 30 I had heartattack last yr stroke but blood pressure great. | Im supposed to take 2x but I take once.24 hr time time release | F | 47 | 10 years 50 | 9/8/2016 | 4 | Inappropriate sinus tachycardia | Fatigue, depression is worse, no energy or motivation, wanting to sleep all the time | I was put on metoprolol to control my heart rate. I used to have episodes of tachycardia almost every day and some of these episodes would be quite severe. I would be sitting in class or at work and my heart rate would often stay in the 130s or 140s for hours at a time. Once it got in the 170s for an hour and a half, and all I was doing was sitting in class. It literally felt like I was having a heart attack. My depression and chronic fatigue have been worse since taking this drug, but it is controlling my heartrate very well; my resting heartrate went from 100 to 70, on average, and I don't have anymore episodes of tachycardia unless I miss a dose. I've been dealing with depression and chronic fatigue for years, so I don't know if it's the drug making it worse or if I'm just going through a rough spot right now. | F | 20 | 3 weeks | 3/30/2016 | 4 | Supraventricular Tachycardia | Nightmares, Insomnia and depleted sex drive. Ringing in ears. I have also experienced low blood pressure | It has lowered my heart rate to an average of 65 BPM (from 160) which is great and I don't feel like I am going to keel over from the SVT but the low blood pressure, lack of sex drive and nightmares are not nice experiences. | F | 32 | 2 months 75 mg | 3/25/2015 | 4 | SVT | VERY sleepy, woke up to heart pounding a couple times. Has controleld my heart rate that was resting 130bpm and high BP to normal numbers (80bpm and 120/80) | F | 22 | 14 days 50MG 2X day | 3/4/2015 | 4 | Irregular Heartbeat and High BP | Controlled atrial flutter, lowered blood pressure, lowered libido, lowered tolerance to exercise, some brain fog. No adverse physical effects. | This drug worked well for me with minimal side effects. It became a part of my life. Mental gymnastics worked well for brain fog. | M | 63 | 4 years 50 MG 2X day | 5/5/2014 Patient History | 4 | hypertension | 1st 3-4 months: lethargy, no zest for life, life sucked Currently: Still having very vivid dreams (can be good or bad) | Was 180/100, now 130/85. We tried all the newer drugs and nothing would consistently work. Good ole beta blocker (and lots of it) does the trick for me. Good if you can get past the first few months. Dreams can be alarming they are so real. | M | 65 | 365 days 200 mb 2X day | 7/22/2013 | 4 | Palpitations/High Blood Pressure | Initially, I was on 50 MG twice a day - no side effects. After 5 months Dr. increased in to 100 MG a day. Had some dizziness that went away after 2 weeks or so. Odd but interesting dreams. | It works like magic in controlling palpatations. Haven't had any since the dosage increase. Overall I have been very impressed the medication. | M | 47 | 100 MG 2X day | 4/19/2012 | 4 | a-fib | Brain-fog and loss of memory. | Very pleased that I'm still able to run 4 times a week for an hour and lift weights 2 times a week for an hour; I was worried that this would melt away like my mind has. | M | 52 | 8 months 25 mg 2X day | 5/31/2011 | 4 | blood presure | Blurred vision mostly in my right eye. I have experienced shortness of breath as well. | M | 54 | 30 days 24mg 1X day | 6/8/2010 | 4 | Proactive prevention after bypass. | Dry mouth. Occassional sun sensitivity. | The dry mouth is sometimes annoying. Otherwise, no particularly noticeable effects, good or bad. | M | 65 | 16 months | 9/24/2007 | 4 | high blood pressure | some loss of sex drive dizzness | side effects didn't last long | M | 65 | 5 days | 8/23/2007 | 3 | For Afib | Fatigue, weight gain, insomnia erectile disfunction, feel like I don't want to do anything, feeling of doom occasionally. It keeps my heart rate down, so I'll just have to suck it up. | M | 69 | 4 days 50my x 2 2X day | 6/24/2022 | 3 | Irregular heartbeat; lightheadednes | Headaches, nausea and diarrhea | No longer have irregular heartbeat and lightheadedness but gradually getting more side effects. | F | 69 | 10 days 25 mg 2X day | 3/13/2022 | 3 | dvt | Low blood pressure, lightheaded, drowsy, dizzy, shortness of breathe, weak, blurry vision, headache, feel afraid, sleepy, tingling and arms going numbing and cold. I feel crappy, but did slow down heart rate. | F | 48 | 11 days 25mg 2X day | 4/29/2021 | 3 | Inappropriate sinus tachycardia | Vivid dreams/ hallucinations, decreased sex drive, weight gain (10lbs approx.), fatigue | Overall the drug worked well to lower my heart rate. When I began taking it my heart rate was around 160 at rest. When on the drug it dropped to 80. However, I hate having a non existent sex drive and being 10 pounds heavier than I was. My husband also hated me screaming about spiders in the middle of the night as a result of the hallucinations. I am now being weaned off the drug and am taking 12.5 mg before I stop completely. At the moment, there is no plan to continue treatment for sinus tachycardia; and if it returns, i may need to begin taking the medication again. | F | 26 | 11 months 50mg 1X day | 11/30/2020 | 3 | Palpitations | Tiredness, itchy skin , nightmares , short of breath . Overall ill feeling , oh, and the weight gain . | It actually helped with the palpitations | F | 74 | 1 years 25 mgs 1X day | 9/9/2020 | 3 | Afib, PVCs, unstable angina | Fatigue, aching arms, knees, hips, back, massive weight gain(45#), depression, anxiety, zero exercise tolerance, short of breath with minimal exertion, hungry constantly, gastric upset, indigestion, heart burn, increased gerd, bowel pain, gas, bloating ... | F | 58 | 5 years 50mg 2X day | 8/13/2020 |
