bystolic

Avatar f tn My mother currently taking nebivolol 5mg in morning and amlodipine/perindopril 5/8mg in evening for hypertension. Her blood pressure has recently been improved and taking both pills cause low blood pressure, she is also suffering from cough as a side effect from perindopril. I am considering to shift her to nebivolol only but 5 mg once a day is not controlling the blood pressure well. My question is can nebivolol be taken twice a day in 2.
Avatar f tn Group I which included 13 patients , 8 were not diabetic or hypertensive (Group Ia) and 5 patients were diabetic and/or hypertensive (Group Ib). Patients of this group were given Interferon alpha2b monotherapy for 24 weeks. Group II included 9 patients, 5 were not diabetic or hypertensive (Group IIa) and 4 patients were diabetic and/or hypertensive (Group IIb). Patients of this group were given interferon alpha2b plus ribavirin for 24 weeks.
705966 tn?1239408751 There was a recent review in Journal of the American College of Cardiology, which showed that when you slow the heart rate with a beta blocker in patients with hypertension, you actually get more heart attacks, heart failure and strokes. (It's important to note that using BBs in people who have heart failure or previous heart attack is a different case.) Your heart and brain arteries don't know what the pressure is in the arm, so to speak. The lower the rate, the higher the CV events.
Avatar m tn After my second ever episode of fast atrial fibrillation, resolved through electric shock, my cardiologist prescribed 100mg flecaine and 2.5mg nebivolol to be taken every day. This as a preventive measure. I have read on the medicine info notice that these two medicines should not be taken together. My cardiologist states that they are routinely prescribed together by cardiologists these days. I have never taken any heart drug, and feel a bit concerned. Can anyone shed some light on this?
Avatar m tn My cardiologist subbed 5 mg Nebivolol for the Amlodipine due to what he described as exercise-related hypertension. I took this medication for a week and experienced a range of unpleasant side effects, including exhaustion, significant depression and reduced heart rate (mid-60s, compared with my normal mid-80s). I've been off the Nebivolol for five days, but I'm still experiencing these side effects. My heart rate has only come back to about 67-68.
Avatar n tn I have no other problems other than herniated c5-c6 and occipital/trigeminal neuralgia and have been on neurontin for 6 months....I am concerned...why am I hypertensive...I first thought it was because I was having pain but I took pain med and BP really doesn't come down much....I am not really in any pain just the gas pains occasionally and I am walking but I am afraid to do too much because of my BP...Could the CO2 be compressing some of my vessels causing me to be hypertensive?

Avatar n tn Is there a strong correlation between hair thinning/loss with accutane patients? Should she be concerned about permanent hair loss? If her hair is thinning, is this permanent as well or temporary?
Avatar m tn Long term or inadequately controlled hypertension can affect the blood vessels in the retina and the consequent changes are referred to as hypertensive retinopathy. Hence a regular follow up with an ophthalmologist is recommended for all hypertensive patients to study these changes. Hope this helped and do keep us posted.
1761834 tn?1315837826 In studies including a significant number of diabetic patients [5,7] diabetes mellitus has also been associated with retinopathy. Furthermore, improvement of retinopathy is delayed in hypertensive and diabetic patients after ending treatment [7]. This relationship emphasizes that IFN-induced retinopathy can result from physiopathological mechanisms in common with other retinopathies related to microvascular abnormalities.
Avatar n tn Ophthalmologic disorders Decrease or loss of vision, retinopathy including macular edema, retinal artery or vein thrombosis, retinal hemorrhages and cotton wool spots, optic neuritis, and papilledema may be induced or aggravated by treatment with peg-intron alpha 2b or other alpha interferons. All patients should receive an eye examination at baseline. Patients with preexisting disorders (e.g.
Avatar m tn My doctor just recommend a new med called nebivolol (bystolic) to me thst im pretty hesitant to try as propranolol does help Most out of what ive tried. The nebivolol bystolic didnt get the besr reviews from what ive seen. thats just my experiences and what things have worked and not worked for me on an individual basis. I feel some of my pvcs are caused by anxiety,some by exercise or increase in working out and some by large meals.
Avatar m tn Ectopic beats are rarely attributed to CAD. We sometimes order a stress test to make sure in higher risk patients, but not on all patients. If you are low risk, it is true that a stress test is more likely to yeild a false positive test. MVP is associated with more pvc's. It doesn't sound like your MVP is that bad though. It is also true that stress (emotional or physicial like exercise) can cause some people to have more events.
Avatar f tn Caution and clinical monitoring are recommended if these agents are prescribed together, especially to patients with underlying risk factors. Generally it is commmon to see a anti-hypertensive, a antiarrhythmic, and possibly a cardiogenic agent such as digoxin, and a diuretic, prescribed together when heart disease exists. This is not unusual. Good luck with your research!
Avatar m tn Hi, I am a 54 years old. I have never smoked, am quite active but a little obese, no diabetes, nor have high bad cholesterols/triglyceride. Seven weeks ago, in the middle of the night, I had gripping pain in both my wrists, which then spread to my chest. My blood pressure (amazingly and for the first time in my life), shot up from my regular 130/90 to 200/120, and that too for no known reason. Pulse remained normal at 75/m.

Avatar f tn Hi, All beta blockers are known to result in some degree of erectile dysfunction in males & decreased libido in females. However, nebivolol is one beta blocker which has got vasodilatory properties & hence can be one of the alternatives of carvedilol. However, you can continue taking lisinopril. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care.
Avatar m tn In the previous JNC 7 guidelines released in 2003, the target blood pressure was less than 140/90 mm Hg for most hypertensive patients and less than 130/80 mm Hg for patients with chronic kidney disease or diabetes.
1794638 tn?1345155061 htm Cotton-wool spots were found in 31 patients and retinal hemorrhage in nine patients during treatment (24% of patients). These lesions remained asymptomatic and disappeared in all patients. A previous history of arterial hypertension (RR 4.60, 95% CI 1.95-10.85), age above 45 years (RR 2.80, 95% CI 1.36-5.85), and use of pegylated alpha-interferon (RR 2.75, 95% CI 1.41-5.38) were significantly associated with retinopathy.
Avatar n tn It is a common side effect with Nebicard (Nebivolol) so perhaps it might be worth asking your Doctor to prescribe a different brand.
Avatar f tn i took it for about 14 mths for svt ,and i found it to be ok ,there are better ones for svt ,like neiblet{nebivolol} which is a more selective for the heart ,but inderal is known to be good for migraine as well...for the first few weeks just watch standing up quick and things like that ,it is better started on a low dose and moved up as needed,,but apart from that it seems to be well tolerated by most.
