Nebivolol Forums

I took Bystolic when I was first diagnosed with high blood pressure and did fine. When the generic came out I was switched to it. It seems around the same time that any time I exert myself to do anything I start sweating just on my face, head and neck. Has anyone else had this issue? ## I’ve been on the generic for 2 months 5mg and have had no deleterious effects. ## The FDA does list increased sweating as a possible side effect of Bystolic (Nebivolol), along with nausea, headache, stomach pain, and tiredness. Ref: Bystolic Information Are you on any other medications?

side effect information ## Nebivolol is the generic name for Bystolic; Nebivolol is a receptor blocker with nitric oxide-potentiating vasodilatory effects, used in treatment of hypertension and, in Europe, also for left ventricular failure. Research I have gathered states that several studies have suggested that Nebivolol has reduced typical beta-blocker-related side effects, such as fatigue, clinical depression, bradycardia, or impotence.

I have been taking Nebivolol 2.5 mg for 10 years to control hypertension. Can it cause cough which is persisting despite treatment. My physician says beta blockers at times cause chronic cough which goes if this medication is stopped and alternative medication taken for high BP. Is this true should I stop it to try out this hypothesis. Also more important can it be suddenly stopped or tapered off over a period to avoid a rebound after the body is used it over such a long period. Early advice will be appreciated.

I am a diabetic patient (type two). Due to essential hypertension around 150/92, my Dr prescribed telmisartan 20. My pulse rates elevated to 114 and 88 in the morning. I was feeling fatigued, mental confusion, blurred vision within 4 weeks of medication. I was changed over to Nebi 2.5 and dramatically my bp has come down to 110/70 average with pulse around 70-78 per minute. Since I am diabetic and also taking glimperide 2 in the morning and fenofibrate 145 at evening with metformin 500 at night, will Nebi 2.5 worsen my blood sugar control, which is just now around 110-125 on fasting? Will nebivolol will be suitable for long term therapy to a patient like me who is a patient of type two diabetes for 15 years? My high BP has been diagnosed recently, just two months back.

Can 25 mg of Atenolol be replaced by 5 mg or by 2.5mg of Nebivolol? ## Hello, Sharda! How are you? From what I've been able to find, 2.5mgs of Nebivolol would be equivalent to 25mgs of Atenolol, but pleaser don't make a change, unless your doctor has instructed you to do so. Nebivolol is contraindicated with some medical conditions, such as heart failure/heart block. The FDA classifies these medications as beta blockers and list the most common side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, stomach pain and increased urination.

Should I start Nebicard5 ## What you need to understand first is that allowing your blood pressure to remain elevated and to continue to rise is far, far more dangerous than any possible dependence your body may develop on the medications for it, since it creates the risk of heart attack, stroke, congestive heart failure and etc. That said, Nebicard contains the active ingredient Nebivolol, which is a beta blocker and the 5mg is a fairly low dosage, but yes, if you do take it for awhile, you will need to slowly taper off of it, if you ever have to stop taking it, due to the risk of rebound effects that it can cause.
