I originally had a skipping heart beat which was tested and I was found to have no heart disease. Doctor put me on Metopropol succ er 25 mg tablets once a day to lower blood pressure. I had been taking for about eight(8) months with daily periods of skipping heart beat. My pulse rate had dropped from 74 to 64 times a minute and blood pressure was probably 122/72. When I got the last months supplies of tablets they had what looks like w/b on one side. I do not know what was on previous tablets. All of a sudden my heart is not skipping a beat anymore. Is it possible that the result is due to a change in manufacturer of the pill or is it possibly just a chance occurence? I have also cut back on drinking wine and caffein use. Thank you. ## Is that the complete markings on them? Can you plea...

I started taking Chlorthalidone 2 days ago. Was wondering if you can still drink alcohol while taking this medication? There is no warning on my bottle, so I thought I would ask. ## Hello, Eva! How are you? No, you should not drink, while taking this medication. Chlorthalidone is a diuretic that works be removing excess fluid from the body, alcohol does the same thing, so you could end up seriously dehydrated. Side effects to the medication may include nausea, dizziness, headache, frequent urination and stomach pain. Is there anything else I can help with? ## I started taking this 25 mg chlorthalidone once a day along with my regular bp med Norvasc 5 mg...My pressure was way high for about 3 weeks. Since starting this is is like 145/85 good but I feel like I've ran a marathon I'...

Yes i noticed the same thing my 20mg pills were half the size I used to take. My BP spikes to 180 over 120 when normaly it was 125 over 75. I think they changed the pill, my Dr switched me to another BP med & everything is back 2 normal. Everybody taking Lisinopril should monitor there BP, dont trust it anymore. ## my BP has been running higher since the size of pill changed. I was before in the normal range and now it is reading much higher. Why is that. ## Pharmacist said no worries - same drug, but I don't believe it. Signs of ED which I never had before. I'm going to call my cardiologist and ask to switch to something else. Thank goodness for this website and glad people are willing to share. ## I too am having issues. I’ve taken 20mg for 7 years with no issues. No...

The tyvaso medicine makes me feel very bad. Please help me because I have to get into bed after every treatment. ## That could be the sign of a dangerous reaction to the Tyvaso. Have you talked to your doctor about it? It may not be the right medication for you to use and you may need to try something else. Learn more Tyvaso details here. Can you be more specific about the symptoms you're experiencing? ## From what I could gather, Tyvaso (Treprostinil inhalation) is used to treat the symptoms of pulmonary arterial hypertension. Have you considered asking your doctor about any other treatment options; perhaps something with a more tolerable side effect profile? I would also strongly encourage you to keep an eye on your diet, since many types of food can either be beneficial or detrim...

I've been on bystolic now for a week. I've been prescribed 5 mg. But I've been taking 2.5 mg for the past five days. I want to be weaned off considering my heart rate skyrockets from major depression disorder. From depression and anxiety all started from being put on a beta blocker in the beginning. My cardiologist didn't understand that I'm highly afraid of doctors and hospitals so from then I was put on one.. am I able to wean correctly from 2.5 mg? How do you go from a lower dose of 2.5 mg. ## Also I will add that I've been on the mirena for almost a year.

Just wanted to comment here. I have the same problem with my blood pressure when going into Dr office. My blood pressure rises with the mention.."Now, let's get your blood pressure." It rises by thinking..."it's gonna be high, I just know it!" And it is. Way higher than when I take it at home. It is soooo situational. I can see I need the am lodi pine I take. My readings are 140 over 90 at high end and 124 over 80 at low end. You, obviously understand the med world better than I, but could you explain the benefits of Co Q10 for me? If it will be a benefit for me, I want on it. ## There is an issue called White Coat Syndrome, and it does result in elevated blood pressure readings when people go to the doctor. I experience it myself, whenever I see a new doctor for...

For some reason I can only take the 25mg Atenonol from Sandoz, I take it to diminish heart palpitations from MVP, the pharmacy changed the manufacturer to Ateva one time And I began to have palpitations again. So now that Sandoz is on backorder and I cannot get it filled I am going to try Zydus. Can anyone in the pharmaceutical field tell me if it’s the same as Sandoz? Thank you ## Hi Worry17, The only difference between Zydus, Sandoz and other manufacturers is within the list of inactive ingredients, also known as binders/fillers that help make up the pill's composition. In many cases, the quality and quantity of these "so-called inert" substances are subject to an unknown level of scrutiny by the FDA. We don't know how much oversight is involved to monitor where ...
