Hi. I couldn’t tolerate Bisoprolol they made me extremely fatigued all the time I was on 20mg but started off on 5mg. I wouldn’t be concerned about the Bisoprolol however the Amiodarone is another matter. I refused point blank when they said Amiodarone was an option. Please do some research regarding Amiodarone it causes all sorts of problems. The problem you have your taking multiple meds so it will be difficult to find out which one is causing you a problem if you have one. I changed from Bisoprolol to Nebivalol. Nebivalol is a more cardio selective med. they put the majority of patients on Bisoprolol because it’s the cheaper option. Nebivalol is 3 times more than Bisoprolol

Amiodarone is the most effective but most lethal drug. It can damage eyes ,lungs, thyroid and kidneys for starters. I was offered it and then I read up on it and said no way.
