Stopping Carvedilol (Coreg): When will the effects wear off?

I was prescribed it for undiagnosed angina by my PCP just to see if it would help. I am relatively healthy other than smoking 3 cigarettes a day at most. I am only 25 and the ER doc yanked me off it immediately which I thought would have caused a rebound of some kind and not a continuation of the effects since the half life for this drug is only supposed to be 10 hours so virtually none of it should still be in me.

It well seems like something worth exploring. Noninvasively testing I've heard isn't the way to go with the heart unless you're already three sheets to the wind. Hopefully I'll push through my shift tonight and can go see a proper doctor in the morning.

@incrediblemulk98, your message an hour ago and the earlier one 42 minutes ago make me wonder whether Coreg was your problem at all. Removing it didn't change your symptoms.
The sharp decline in your blood pressure needs to be explored as something Coreg might not have caused. If you choose the ER as your next step, don't let them off the hook by simply responding to something you suggest -- make them look into your heart and ask for help from cardiology.
