How did you wean off Metoprolol?

Funny enough, I am aware of that phenomenon @funcountess. Shame on me for not bringing it up with the doctor when I had a chance. They stated to bring in my cuff for the BP clinic meeting, so I am sure they are aware of it. I am wondering if Metoprolol is a viable prescription for BP? It sounds like it's mostly for afib/serious conditions as you state. I do have those PACs, which is probably a consideration here for the prescription. Also, I do have migraines, but it seems Metoprolol is prescribed for migraines at a higher dosage.

Hi, I am on metoprolol 25mg twice a day for PVCs, some PACs and HBP...I get PVCs quite a lot....my episode started Sep 10th and it depends on the day or night....random....but, BP definitely can be affected by stress, anything that gets you nervous or unsure...I even get high strung when I’m setting up a new device....technology is very stressful to me....but I can tell you that without taking the metoprolol, it wouldn’t be long before my HR would go from a resting 50 to in the hundred +....also, when I eat less, because of Reflux disease, I lose a few pounds and that helps the BP....but anxiety when even taking blood pressure can really run mine up, especially the top number......good luck to you...try not to worry....easy for me to say....
