I have been experiencing bad insomnia so the dr said I can cut down to once a day. Will I have bad rebound effects from dropping the nightime dose at once?
I’m currently taking 100mg of metoprolol succinate twice daily (200mg total) for inappropriate sinus tachycardia/SVT that got much worse after an infection. The side effects of taking a dose that high are pretty terrible, but I still frequently feel my heart bounding out of my chest. It wakes me up or keeps me awake at night. I don’t want to raise my dose any more, even though my cardiologist gave me the all clear to increase it as I need to, because I’m having shortness of breath that gets more and more unbearable with each dose increase. Has anyone switched to ivabradine or added it on to your medication? If so, how did that go for you?
