Hi, just a couple of questions....Does anyone on Sotalol get sleep disturbances? Not only do I wake periodically in the night but I never seen tired and struggle to get to sleep, when I do I have awful dreams. I used to be such a good sleeper!
Q2 - anyone had any bright red blood from the bottom ( sorry) I have a very small amount on occasions and my doctor has examined me and can't see or feel anything and a FIT stool test has come back negative. I have read that apixaban can cause this
I have been on Sotalol for a year now, usually can get off to sleep initially but wake up frequently and struggle to get back to sleep, have many bad dreams and nightmares. Following a recent successful cardioversion, the Sotalol dose was halved and I have seen a reduction in the nightmares.
Thank you. I thought this may be a possibility, I intend to discuss it with my EP at my next review
If you don't mind me asking what dose do you take?
Was 80mg twice daily, reduced to 40mg twice daily but af breakthroughs so back on 40mg three times a day
I think beta blockers in general have a bad reputation when it comes to dreams! Mine are often extremely bizarre and sometimes frightening.
Yes I do! I take 80 mg twice a day (8:30 am and pm)
It's awful isn't it? I dread going to bed now 😔
It certainly is. I have used Ambien (Zopedin) 5 mg prescribed (limited supply) by my family doctor, and when I take one, I sleep quite well, with little or no nightmares.
