Hi, @jdgreene2008. I hope I can be helpful. I've been taking Carvedilol for several years after a diagnosis of A-fib along with hypertension. Like you, I took it seriously that dropping use of the drug would be risky, and I have exchanged information with several dozen members here with experience with Carvedilol. It's puzzling that your "new prescription" would call for 15 days of pills (30 pills of 3.125mg?). Was that prescription newly written by your cardiologist or did you mean new delivery under your health insurance? Either way, I hope you can contact your pharmacist and your cardiologist for explanation of what is going on with your use of Carvedilol. I suspect that you'll be advised that stopping use of this medication (with a dosage of only 3.125mg) is unlikely to risk serious side effects (my dosage has been 25mg twice a day for many months, now reduced to 12.5mg twice a day). But don't act on the basis of my experience; be sure your cardiologist is in step with what you want to do. Martin
