Bisoprolol and tachycardia
Many people report this side effect and whilst this isn't a very large dose it may not be the drug for you. Do speak to you doctor please as there may be something else he can use.
Hi BobD, thank you very much for taking the time to reply, it's definitely helped the racing heart but the extreme tiredness is awful, I shall make an appointment to go back to GP, I'm 51 but feel positively ancient at the moment x
Hi Donna,
Just to add on what Bob has said, try and find out what your resting pulse is? (i.e you may have a low pulse rate and therefore a lower dose of 1.25mg may be more suitable and less side effects, just a thought. I got mind changed for that reason.
Best Wishes
Barry
Thank you very much Barry, that's something I hadn't thought of, before the Bisoprolol my heart had been racing around the 150-165bpm for quite a few weeks and really frequently and it has really calmed down although I can still feel palpitations, doctor took my blood pressure and pulse just over a week ago and I think pulse was around 70 at that time, I'm pleased it's calmed it down but I feel like a zombie, I just sat for hours today staring into space, I will check it thank you xx
