BYSTOLIC  (NEBIVOLOL HYDROCHLORIDE):  Nebivolol is used to treat high blood pressure. Lowering high blood pressure helps prevent strokes, heart attacks, and kidney problems. This medication belongs to a class of drugs known as beta blockers. It works by blocking the action of certain natural substances in your body, such as epinephrine, on the heart and blood vessels. This effect lowers heart rate, blood pressure, and strain on the heart.   FDA Approval Date: 2008-10-08 (Sources: U.S. Centers for Medicare Services, FDA)

 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

 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

 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

 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

 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
