Yes there is a shortage with the manufactur of this medication. If your dr wants you on this and doesnt want to subsitute it until coreg is avalable again you can have your pharmacy drop ship it or call your dr and have the change your dose to fit your needs.

There are people that have taken Welbutrin and have had an elevated heart rate. I saw a story on http://www.rxlist.com/rxboard/wellbutrin.pl?noframes;read=3160 where someone has experienced what you are going through with this. I am sure that there are many others that are experiencing it. \n\nAlso, you said that your doctor dismissed it. If you feel like he is not listening you may want to get a new one or reapproach the subject and ask him why he skipped over it. \n\nI have listed some places where you can do some reading into this and see what you feel about and hopefully may answer some questions you have about these drugs.

Not all BP meds are created equal. 25mg is a very low dose and I am sure your doctor has you scheduled to reevaluate this. Anxiety can affect blood pressure and heart rate but you should have also discussed this situation at your visit. Toprol is a commonly used drug and should work well for you. Be sure to follow up with your checkups.

My suggestion would be to NOT TAKE any of the current ED drugs before speaking to your physician. For one, they could interact with your blood pressure medicine, causing undesired results, including death. Also, you may have an underlying (although asymptomatic) heart condition related to your hypertension (high blood pressure) which could lead to serious complications. Inform your physician about your current medications and health problems, and he/she will be able to guide your treatment in the best way.

There are two ares you need to review carefully.\n\nFirst be sure you have not started any new medicines or herbs since the time the problem began.  You could be having a medicine reaction or one caused from mixing medicines or medicine and herbs.  Certain herbs do not go well with some medicines and even other herbs.  A pharmachist may be able to help answer quesstions or some in-depth research of what you are taking and their possible inter-actions with other medicines.\n\nSecondly, (if the first part does not help) you need to be more aggressive in finding out the problem.  Panic attacks are a problem, but they are only a second problem not the main problem.  Don't let anyone try to fix the panic problem and leave you with the real root problem.  \n\nMy mom and aunt both had this problem.  It took about year of going to specilists to find the root of the problem.  Several doctors claimed one thing or another and gave them medicine, but it did not fix the problem.  That is because most doctors are looking for a quick fix or treat women as panic emotional beings that a tranquilizer will do the trick.  Well, IT WILL NOT in most cases.  There is a problem and it can be solved.  Chemical emblance in the body that can effect the nervious system and or the brain, is often the problem, but not always.  It is true there are many causes, but finding the right answer for you make take some time.  If you are very lucky you might find the right answer right away, but realize this is not the usual occurance.  So, perserverance and going to additional doctors is often the course of actions tha has to be taken.\n\nThe problem is not likely to go away on its own (unless you can pin point a combination of medicines or herbs as the problem). Check into specialists in nervious system, brain functions, Miglinate Hypertension (a not-so-common blood pressure problem), and surpising enough a diet specialist.  All these may need to be contacted in order to isolate and identify the cause of the problem.  When you get the right answer you will know it because they will likely be able to treat it.  \n\nIt is unlikely that is is brain tumor, but it should not be ruled out without proper testing.  A doctor dealing with brain function can look at that plus chemical reactions in the brain itself.\n\nIf you settle for less the doctors will be happy, but you may still be in the same condition.  Good luck.

Suck on pepperment and take Ginseng, if your blood pressure isn't high, and stay in bright areas and do what you like and eat chocolate (chocolate has a chemical that makes you happy), drink cocoa, early for caffene's sake, if you want. I would pray if I was in your state of mind, personaly.

Yeah, my NP gave me phentermine.  This one should not be taken at night and I had to keep the dose really low, because it had a tendency to raise my bp and give me headaches.

I actually take 4 different blood pressure medicines. Toprol XL50 mg is one of them. \nLike you I still get chest pains with light headedness. I have been taking Toprol XL for about 2 years. I have had 3 heart caths with 4 stent implants.\nBut I have never heard of Toprol giving you chest pains.\n\nYou really need insurance. It has been my experience that since 1992 this high blood pressure just gets worse.

yeah, you never know what youre getting into when you buy from an online pharmacy, ESPECIALLY one that doesnt require a prescription. If you want to save money on your drugs, the best thing to do is get the generic for your drug, and if a generic is not available, switch to an older class of drugs for that condition. For instance, if you're on a new "sartan" ang2 antagonist for blood pressure such as Cozaar (losartan, i think retails around $80-100/month), have your doctor switch your prescription over to an ACE inhibitor like lisinopril (probably costs about $10-20). And dont get a brandname "XR" or "XL" or "SR" drug, they arent really any better and they cost way more. Talk to your doctor about it or have your pharmacy give your doc a call if youre interested in doing something like that.

Beta blockers (like Lopressor) commonly cause people to feel tired and can precipitate shortness of breath.  \n\nIt sounds like you are very focused on your B/P which in some respects is great but you can over kill it too.  Sometimes just stepping back and relaxing a little can be useful.  If you are healthy enough, adding vigorous physical exercise like swimming laps or playing tennis can be helpful in reducing you blood pressure.  \n\nUnless you have some dangerous condition, like an aneurysm, then taking a few months to get the B/P under control is okay.  Most people require two and often three medications to adequately treat the condition.  You are probably saying "Three medicines???"  Taking modest doses of two or three medicines can often produce great results with no side effects.  ACE inhibitors (or ARB's are a newer generation but are more expensive), diuretics (HCTZ) and B-blocker or Calcium Channel Blockers as a third adjunct...these choices can be influenced, however, by other conditions that you are at risk for that might benefit from these medications too.\n\nContinue to work with your medical provider and you will achieve your goal...good luck.

Your best shot is to contact the pharmacy company distributing it to see if they have any programs to assist in the purchase. Often, they have a few.\n\n This must all be followed with a doctors perscription, of course.

Quadriderm is called Lotrisone in the US I believe, but it is outrageously expensive without insurance. You can order it from Mexican pharmacies for about 14$ a tube though.

Everyone is going to scream hypertension, but it would not come on this suddenly.  Don't let them slam you with hypertensive drug therapy.  Diet is much better way to control.  Anyway you are too young and that probably is not the cause.  YOur BP is probably high do to something else going on.  One thing that can cause BP to raise is pain.  Hmmm, had any of that lately.  If you do have kidney stones, the pain could raise your BP, or a possible infection of some sort.  Either way, go get checked out and worry about the hypertension down the road.  Oh yeah, if it is hypertension, look to diet, the same thing that causes Type 2 diabetes also adds to hypertension, it usually can all be corrected with diet.   The problem is, your MD will not know how.  Check out the website below.\n\nBut yes, GO TO A DOCTOR!
