I was prescribed this for Hyperadrenergic Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome. It has only been 3 weeks, but wow, what a difference. My heartrate would skyrocket upon standing or walking across room, couldn’t function at all, blood pressure rising the longer upright. My resting heartrate trend has dropped 50bpm and up and functioning like 80-90+bpm blood pressure dropped from 180/110 on max dose losartan and diltiazem to 105/68. I was also already being treated for hypersomnia with Modafinil and Sjogren’s with pilocarpine so haven’t noticed any additional fatigue or dry mouth but likely due to the fact these meds already address those things.Read More Read Less

I started this a year a go 12/21. first at 10mg then down to 5mg. I find myself, short of breath walking around Lowes, We did a heart cath in Aug 22 and it was unremarkable. for age 75 man non smoker, weight 347lb, type two diabetic controled with insulin and Ozempic once aweek. Im also on Lisinopril 5mg. I have dry mouth, and take meds in the am. the shortness of breath is my main issue. if bisopropil fumarte 5mg is a betablocker, and lisinopril is an ace inhibitor are both doing the same thing??Read More Read Less

22 years ago, my heart rate and fibrillation (mostly ventral) just would not slow. And I was an athlete in good condition. After several sleepless nights and days, I sought help. CHANGED MY LIFE! Normalcy! But. Reading these, I know where my dry mouth originated.

I was put on this medication for severe tachycardia (230bpm) 2.5mg made very, very little difference and so I went onto 5mg rather quickly. It still did not make the most dramatic of differences to my heart rate although there was some improvements (went to 200) for someone with lower levels of tachycardia I think it would be benificial. It does make me quite breathless and very tired.

Been on this for 3-4 years after trying just about everything else, bad side effects to all. I take 2.5 mg, sometimes an extra 1.25 mg at night. Keeps BP fairly low, heart rate down so lessens anxiety. Main problems are lack of consistent energy, ED & low sex drive, stiffness in shoulders, often stiff lifeless legs, arthritic pain in hands & wrists. Wake up numerous times at night, often go to bed way early. Diagnosed with low T so prescribed T gel but it makes my fatigue worse on this med! Also someone mentioned short term memory issues and slight stutter. I've noticed that too. Ive went off this for a week or two at a time and have noticed symptoms improve, felt 20 years younger- so it's sad I have to stay on this and can't use something else- but all others give worse effects like headaches. Insomnia, chills. nausea, constipation, etc I can at least live with Bisoprolol side effects, even if it's not ideal!Read More Read Less

After a year of using , my blood pressure still not under control. 3 weeks ago I start loosing hair by handful. I did some digging and guess what. Bisoprolol is reported to be associated with widespread hair loss . They don't talk about that one. I visit my family doctor today ,he prescribe different medicine. He didn't know about hair loss . This was big news in "Irish News" on 29 August, 2019. Article was written by Dr. Martin Scurr. I hope my hair will grow back.

After years of holding off from using BP Meds I decided it was time. I've been taking Bisoprolol now for 30-days and though it has slowed my heart-rate considerably it has left me feeling extremely tired throughout the day. That along with a general feeling of malaise and fluid retention and makes me feel like I'd rather have high BP. I've given it as much time as I could to allow for my body to adjust to this medication but now feel I should move to something else. Also... although my heart rate has slowed the effect on my BP has not been as much as I'd hoped. Read More Read Less

I started taking this beta blocker after I had problems with lisinopril which made me depressed. My cardiologist at the Cleveland Clinic back in 1993 put me on zebeta after my bypass and because of the bad experiences with Lisinopril.I have been taking this drug (generic name bisoprolol fumarate 5 mg) regularly with good control of my blood pressure 120/80 typically and no depression. Just recently my NH internist put me on metoprolol succinate(lisinopril) 25 mg which made me depressed. After three days on this medication I stopped taking it and went back to zebeta (bisoprolol fumarate 5 mg) which has worked fine with me for over 25 years. Also Take altace. Read More Read Less

Have taken for about 24 years to lower heart rate. Works well. Blood pressure normally low so have to stop before surgeries. Take 2.5 daily and have to break a small pill, which is a pain.

Taking it to reduce heart rate. It's been very effective and easy to use. Just pop a pill once a day.
