Metoprolol At Bedtime

Updated

My doctor prescribed 25 mg at bedtime. It caused terrible nightmares and I was unable to fall back asleep after. I only took it for 3 nights then threw the rest of the pills in the garbage.

I don't blame you for wanting to get rid of the rest of those pills. A lot of prescription drugs have side effects that are unbearable.

Have you talked to your doctor yet about what happened?

If you experience a serious side effect, you or your doctor may send a report to the Food and Drug Administration's (FDA) MedWatch Adverse Event Reporting program online at fda.gov/Safety/MedWatch or by phone 1-800-332-1088.

I hope this helps!

Thanks David. I'm seeing the doctor on Thursday and will give a full report.
Sometimes a side effect of a pill is worse than the disease.
