795648 tn?1237252599 Theres no otc pain relievers that Im aware of that have negative interaction with clonidine, and yes you can take immodium. I take clonidine still to this day for my blood pressure and I use naproxen, aspirin,tylenol etc. and I was taking immodium during my detox while on clonidine. If you want to be safe go to drugs.com and look up clonidine and it will tell you all the possible interactions it can have. As far as I know there shouldnt be anything to worry about.
Avatar f tn Clonidine belongs to a class of drugs called central alpha-adrenergic agonists, so no...it is not a beta blocker... Beta-blockers have been used in cocaine rehab as it can control the "fight or flight' response ...
Avatar n tn What I can tell you though is that Propanolol is a Beta Blocker used for the preventative treatment of migraine headaches and that Fioricet is a butalbital that is sometimes used for the acute treatment of migraine headache.
675923 tn?1296238011 I saw your post and just wanted to chime in. It's unusual that her doctor would put her on a beta blocker for anxiety. I haven't heard that before. From what I know about beta blockers, there usually used for hypertension/high blood pressure. I take a beta blocker for hypertension and and first I did have some mood swings but after awhile it went away. I just got back to my normal happy go lucky self. I would ask the doctor exactly why he chose to use a beta blocker to treat anxiety.
Avatar n tn Metoprolol is a beta blocker
401554 tn?1270213756 Hi everybody, I've been diagnosed with PVC's along with an elevated heart rate (~90-95 BPM while resting) and am currently taking Atenolol 50mg per day, which has reduced my PVC's and heart rate significantly. However, I still get bouts of PVC's and a pounding heart from time to time. My doctor thinks it's because I have very high anxiety levels, which has charged up my sympathetic nervous system.
Avatar n tn Does anyone take NSAID's with their Beta Blocker? I take Toprol XL and it said there is a moderate drug interaction.
Avatar n tn Is it safe to take Prevacid 24 hr. for heartburn if you are on a beta blocker, Atenolol? I am asking for my daughter who is 28 yrs. old.
Avatar m tn I have been taking a combination of beta blocker (now Atenolol) and Calcium Channel Blocker. They work in different ways to lower my HR. I to not know what Tambocor is and haven't looked it up.
Avatar m tn I have present LVH last measured 6 years ago at 15mm and hypertension present currently on beta blocker, losartan and clonidine. I have been getting arrhythmias recently that feel like ectopic beats but I’m worried they could be ventricular arrhythmias which could be more serious. I workout 3-4 days a week and recently saw my doctor which wants me to do a holster monitor and echo in two weeks (after it clears my insurance). Anyone had similar issues?
Avatar m tn See if the doctor will begin a programme to ween you off the Beta Blocker slowly over a number of weeks?
Avatar m tn I take 100 mg Metoprolol a day and take an antibiotic before any dental work, which has been twice in the last 30 days. The antibiotic I took is 2000 mg of amoxicillin. I have not experienced any interaction - and my dentist and cardiologist both know I'm taking both, in fact the cardiologist wrote the prescription for the antibiotic.
Avatar m tn Hello, I'm a 32 year old male, healthy until this past September when I had a fainting episode. Since then I've had a racing heart beat upon standing. I've undergone extensive testing on my heart, everything from an echo to a CT angiogram and all is well structurally and my arteries are clean as a whistle so all good news there. I also wore an event monitor for 3 weeks which picked up sinus tachycardia and PACs.
12182312 tn?1427683956 SSRIs like paroxetine are a type of antidepressant that works by increasing the amount of serotonin in the brain, while metoprolol is a beta blocker which works on the heart. What type of metoprolol are you taking. Metoprolol Tartrate or Metoprolol Succinate?
Avatar n tn Hi - 49yo male in otherwise good health, had an mi and placement of 3 stents in RCA. Was told that there was no damage to my heart, and have returned to all activity including hi-intensity workouts (which I was doing pre-mi). I've put on about 30 "pity-pounds" (from 185 to 215) and despite increase in exercise and near-saintly eating habits, having a hard time losing. I suspect that Toprol is causing this problem.
Avatar m tn m making some good progress without any medication at all, just with counseling and reading. But, maybe if a beta blocker would help with the generalized day-in/day-out 24/7 anxiety I should try it. Just seeing if anyone has any experience with beta blockers. I am doing great battling the full-blown panic attacks but I still have constant anxiety. Oh, and I'm not sure which beta blocker my doctor sent in a prescription for. Thanks!
Avatar f tn My doctor wanted me to take a beta blocker for migranes and for a recently found Mitral Valve Prolapse. The valve prolapse was really never an issue. I don't usually have negative symptoms from the mitral valve prolapse. Although the last five years of chest discomfort and fluttering during panic attacks could have been from the prolapse and not from just anxiety. Does the beta blocker keep my heart from getting worse?
Avatar f tn I have stopped the omeprazole so I reckon this makes you correct in that the beta blockers must be the culprit. As I was on a different beta blocker to you, I assume most will give us the same symptoms, but it's worth asking your GP for Omeprazole or something similar. I was only taking 20mg every morning.

Avatar n tn My cardiologist recommended I get on metropolol. My blood pressure, cholesterol and pulse are all normal and I have no chest pains, shortness of breath or other heart problem symptoms. My EKG showed some irregularity, and an ultrasound showed mild Plaqueing in one carotid artery. I have read that once you start a beta blocker you're on it for the rest of your life. Also, there can be some pretty serious side effects. Any thoughts?
