coreg
After reading an article on postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome, I discovered dehydration leads to low blood volume which causes low blood volume which lowers blood pressure and the heart increases rate significantly to supply blood to the entire body. BINGO! I immediately started drinking 2 liters water (distilled) in addition to my others liquids which were primarily limited to coffee, water with meds and exercise, and a few beers.
I have a friend - male- 68 who had a heart attack ~ 6 years ago. He takes a beta blocker - Coreg. I've known him for 3 years. During that time, he's always had, but now it's getting worse, a slow pulse & low Blood Pressure. Last night it was 84/54 pulse - 52. and he was feeling dizzy. Called the Dr. who said to drink fluids & take something salty - like saltine crackers.
I just read up on Coreg - - beta blocker, and on low blood pressure.
She did improve very much and is feeling better. However, her b/p is like 80/50 at times. She is on coreg 6.25 bid and lasix 20 mg 1 po one day and 40 mg po the next. We were thinking of decreasing the coreg to daily. Would this be the right thing to do? The dr wants us to bring her in to hospital , but we just want to keep her comfortable. Please advise.
Do you have a long term history of heart problems? Have the doctors been able to determine why your EF is low? I know that Coreg has had some really good results at helping to raise the EF.
Sorry you are feeling tired...It could be from the meds. Is this a new diagnosis? Do you have a bi-ventricular pacemaker/ICD? The unit would have 3 leads and would help to pace your heart simultaneously. That also has had good results for raising EF.
Cardiologist discontinued toporol and placed me on coreg 3.125 mg twice daily. Since I felt great I thought reading on ejection fraction had to be wrong, went for second opinion at Mayo Clinic, did cardiac mri, showed major damage to heart muscle on left and bottom of heart that was through entire depth of muscle, right and top of heart seemed to be unaffected.Estimated ejection fraction was 25. Now am scheduled for ICD implant, and aggressive coreg/lisinopril combo with previous meds.
Newer beta-blockers such as carvedilol (coreg is a beta blocker and ACE inhibitor, slows hr and lowers bp...my medication) or nebivolol are better tolerated. These beta-blockers have a vasodilating effect, which may beneficially affect systolic blood pressure in the aorta. Their long-term cardiovascular outcome in hypertension is still not known. Further studies would be required to show that stroke is adequately reduced by these newer beta-blockers.
i now walk a mile a day, stayed the same weight for 2 1/2 years, now am starting to loose - took me 3 months but am losing 2lbs a month, take coreg, bumex, all the heart meds. blood pressure is usually 106/68, so it's low. diabetic and have started menopause. my question is this:
i had the nuclear stress test done on the treadmill this week. i made 85%, was winded but not out of breath, manage to run/walk like they wanted. i have iscemia from the heart attack.
I had a minor heart attack in August 2008 and I had 5 stents put in. I was started on coreg 6.25 two tmes per day. The dr recently reduced me to 3.125 because of weight gain. I am still gaining weight. I decided to stop it altogether and did not tell my dr. My resting pulse is up as well as my pulse rate upon exertion. I just stopped the coreg. Will this regulate itself in a few days.

Best of luck hopefully you won’t have any issues getting approved.
I take beta-blockers and I was under the impression that my pulse rate is now under control being 70-75 in resting and walking 100. Now if the pulse rate is high I need to increase beta-blocker. I already take Coreg 18.75 mg in morning and 15.625 mg in evening. Any suggestions??
s and congestive heart failure has extremely labile blood pressure. She can have a systolic bp of 84 which leads to fainting and an hour later a systolic of 150!. Her bp meds are Norvasc, 5 mg, 1/day, Coreg, 40 mg, 1/day; Enalapril, 20 mg, 2/day.
She has had 4 fainting episodes in the past 15 months and has been very lucky that she has not seriously hurt herself as she fell. Her bp can vary from 120/70, to 160/90, to the 85 to 100 systolics which lead to fainting.
He has me dropping to 12.5 of the Coreg and 50mg of the Tenormin twice a day for 4 days and then 6.25 Coreg and 50 Tenormin twice a day for 4 days, and then only the Tenormin 50 to 75 twice a day depending on BP numbers.
Any one have any knowledge or thoughts about this?
BTW I trust my Cardiologist but am nervous anytime I have to change meds!
This caused me to become very fatigued and my doctor attributed it to the Coreg so he switched me to 10mg Norvasc every day (after weaning off the Coreg for 3 days). This was 2 weeks ago and I'm still feeling the same fatigue. How long does Coreg stay in your system after you stop taking it? I know that Lexapro can cause tiredness as well, but my doctor seemed to think otherwise.
Try cutting back, and it is not unusual for the heartrate not to increase very high with exercise. I believe you asked about another beta blocker as a substitute for coreg. Coreg as a dual mechanism as it also has an ACE inhibitor effects that helps dilate vessels. It is highly recommended for heart patients. Take care.
I am curious as to your opinion regarding the use of coreg for blood pressure control for a juvenile diabetic, with renal problems (37%) function. The coreg causes problems controlling the blood sugar in the patient, and it causes bouts of vomiting and loss of consciousness it also causes very low blood pressures, fatigue and shortness of breath.
Other than lowering your pulse and blood pressure, if you took Coreg but did not need it, could it cause other damage? What symptoms would you have? I am on Coreg as a trial to see if it fixes my chronic shortness of breath. I just wondered if it was safe to do so or if it could cause permanent damage if in fact I did not need it.
