Nebivolol vs atenolol
Common Questions and Answers about Nebivolol vs atenolol
bystolic
I also tried metoprolol which was eventually replaced by atenolol. Both dropped my blood pressure somewhat, but also lowered my resting heart rate down into the 40's during sleep. I asked my cardiologist about discontinuing the atenolol and he said to decrease the dose gradually. I have not taken any meds for the last week and my resting heart rate is now in the 60's or low 70's and my blood pressure has not changed that much.
I was told to have a catheter ablation after a stress test and I was given a sample nebivolol at a low dose instead of the other med, but it lowers my already normal 110/70 blood pressure to 88/61, and that bothered me. I felt dizzy and still had odd heart moments. Finally I tapered it down to nothing by June 15.
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.

Went for catherter ablation but doctor in uk failed to induce arrythmia so no ablation could be done. Was put on atenolol for a while but kept getting PVCs over and again. 4 other sustained VT attacks followed in the next 5 years. All the time it would convert back to sinus normal after heart beating for over an hour at 240bpm. Got another attack after jogging 6 months ago. It was sustained and was controlled with amiodarone IV after 2 hours.
I am on Crestor, Atenolol, Cartia and Digoxin and Synthroid. I had Tachicardia and Atrial Fib.
I have symptoms of shortness of breath, a dry cough, extreme fatigue, short term memory loss, extreme joint pain and stiffness, poor balance, weakness at times, vision gets dark at times, neck and throat soreness. I'm going to my doctor because I can't function with these symptoms. Can you tell me which meds can cause this and what other meds I could take. Thank you.
I was switch from Toprol which caused my bp to drop too low and made me dizzy. My EP switched me to Atenolol which, he said, does not cross the blood-brain barrier and not cause the dizziness. I took it alone for 7 years and controlled afib with it.
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?
The problem is the effect this has on my sense of well-being. Though I'm SO thankful for the effects of atenolol, I'm afraid, as I don't really know what/how harmful these episodes are. I've subsequently developed panic attacks, where b/f I had no anxiety issues. I’d let others convince me that this was only anxiety & tried Lexapro (exacerbated rhythm) & Klonopin (couldn't tolerate sedation).
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.
I had an EP study 5 days ago that showed the problem area either inside the muscle or on the outside. Dr. tried for 2 hours, but couldn't ablate from the inside. Very disappointing day. He started me on Flecainide-I had vision problems and migraines for the first few days, but better now (I'm keeping my fingers crossed!). He also has me on 25mg atenolol. The Dr. mentioned another procedure that's more invasive. I looked it up & it's Epicardial Ablation.
Hi-- I had posted a week or so ago re: ablation vs medication (mine was the very long post--I'll try to be shorter this time!) I went for the EP study/ablation yesterday and the MD told me that it wasn't AVNRT but turned out that I had 2 SA nodes, one of which he ablated. Since the procedure, my HR has been high (90-100 resting), but I had been on atenolol 25 mg BID for tachycardia.
What does this mean--Why would i have had 2 SA nodes and will this return?
NO low Blood Pressure now in the mornings since I now take Metroplol in the AM vs Atenolol at bedtime. No Afib episodes yet (that I can feel at least)...just a little headache once in awhile....Taking No alcohol, tea, or chocolate.......Are there other foods I should eat or not eat? Is pacemaker always forever? How much more effective is Coumid vs aspirin....In my case does my condition usually worsen (become more frequent over time?
or sometimes does the heart settle down? Thanks!!
A-fib) since he was 36 (diagnosed and became persistent in 2000, oddly right after starting Atenolol for it - but told no connection to Atenolol -That he was probably already about to go into persistent AF at the time).
The first cardiologist he saw back then put him on a regime of Atenolol (25 mg) and 325 mcg of aspirin instead of cardioverting him...
Finally saw the EP on the 20th of Jan and because of the SVT and anxiety, he put me on Atenolol 25mg twice a day. This was kind of nice at first, no more racing beats! A bit more lightheaded than usual, but pretty OK.
On the 4th of Feb, it started. The heart skips. I would get them in the past maybe once a day, once a week, once a month, it varied. On that day and the days since I am having 4-5 per minute.
Atenolol made me worse too. I had a really bad period last year when I was in the ER 5 times and in the hospital once. Even had a couple of episodes of afib. My doctor suggested bystolic. It has worked very well for the last year, I have been very pleased with it. In fact, I didn't switch my insurance this year because the alternative company did not want to authorize the use of the bystolic (it's a lot more expensive).
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.
