I'm taking 12.5 mg Metoprolol twice a day and am watching for any symptoms.(It's only been a month) I'm not a firm believer in DOCTOR KNOWS ALL...if I had symptoms I didn't like I would totally refuse to take the medicine. My local doctor hints I have TOO MUCH say in my treatment but it's up to US to know our bodies and do the research. There ARE other options and I personally think it's foolish to make my health worse by taking a certain Rx.
How long have you been taking metoprolol? Not supposed to stop taking it abruptly as doing so can cause heart problems. If the symptoms are tolerable, wait til you see the doctor. Maybe the insomnia will go away I have been on 12.5mg twice a day for 2 and 1/2 years for an arrhythmia.
Definitely do NOT stop it cold turkey, I was put on it in October, 2018, took a month for side effects to ease up, terrible fatigue, a few dreams in the beginning, dry mouth, now I really have to say I have noticed none, Try drinking Camille tea before bed, listen to some headphones and relaxing meditations before bed might help, Good luck🙏🏻
