Feel strangely tired....... Meds?

Hi ,,Until 9 weeks ago I was on 2.5 bisoprolol. Now I'm on 5mg...

I've only noticed in the passed couple of days that if I do anything physical, like garden ending etc, I kind of feel an unusual kind of knackered! I'm wondering now if that's the meds?

Anyone else get this?

I'm on 2.5 mg of Bisoprolol and generally always feel lethargic.

Yes Jill, I get that tired and lethargic feeling too. I take Flecainide, the beta blocker Metoprolol and Warfarin. Some days it's worse than others and I have to have an afternoon nap, but then I do have very rare days with lots of energy! What I'd like to know is why I can't have the days of energy all the time and feel like a normal person. I wonder just what is different to give that extra boost of stamina? If I need to go for a walk I always do so in the morning as I know that by afternoon I won't have the energy.

I only take 1.25 mg and am lethargic all the time. I couldn't manage when I was on 2.5 my heart rate was only 39 beats.

Me too I am the Same as you. I was given 2.5 which made my heart beat33 bps my gp said that is ok but told him to half it as I felt dead all the time , now I have a happy beat of 56.
