Comment:
Coreg has been ineffective in controlling my BP. Another possible reason for taking it is to prevent recurrence of atrial fibrillation. My a-fib was controlled with an ablation. Side effects of the medication have been dizziness, sedation, sleepiness,and loss of mental acuity. In my opinion the side effects outweigh any possible benefits.

Comment:
This med was prescribed due to hypertension and to lower heart rate and strain on heart. I took 40MG along with Exforge and HCTZ.

Woke up at least twice per night. Had heavy feeling in legs when exercising.
