I've been taking it for two years, no side affects. It's possible that one of your other meds is causing the issue. Consult with your cardiologist ASAP.
Hi yes I have insomnia and also bradycardia with heart rate down at mid 40s so have fatigue and muscle aches.
But I have been on it for many years now. Have tried me on other betablockers but they was as bad or worse
Yes, I had to stop taking metoprolol succ ER due to insomnia. Instead of taking one 25mg pill regularly every morning, I take a half pill when I start to feel irregular beats. Those days when I take the half pill, it helps with the irregular beats, and that night I experience insomnia. The earlier in the day I took the pill, the earlier it wears off and the less insomnia I experience. It’s 100 percent definitely this medication that causes my insomnia. I’m also on a statin and an anti-coagulant but I haven’t changed those dosages at all and when I don’t take the metoprolol, I sleep better.
