Metopolol kept me in my bed all day. No energy, sleepy, no ambition. I now take Bystolic (name brand only due to acute medication allergies) at night and now I can go an entire day without a nap. Sometimes its the little things. 🙂

Your comment made me smile!! For me this past week, I gradually stopped Metropopal because it was just as you described. I am working on changing the time I take Amlodipine. I took Lovastatin today at 6am with my breakfast and didn't have any stomach or sleepy issues. I took my Amlodipine 3 hours later and no stomach or sleepiness for the last 2 hours. I am at the park now and walked for 45 minutes. I hope this is a good sign.

I meant I took my Lisinopril at 6am. I also take Lovastatin at bedtime which I'm working on seeing if that could be causing a problem.
