For High Blood Pressure "I have been taking 40 mg of Edarbi for about 3 weeks, noticed weight gain (miserable in my clothes), and back and side pain. Also, my demeanor has gone down, more like depression! Stopped the medication and will have to find some other blood pressure medication."

For High Blood Pressure "I took it upon myself to seek out a cardiologist who is known as more respected in the cause and cure of high blood pressure. After an office visit, the doctor prescribed two drugs, one being Edarbi 80, I began the regimen. Edarbi has turned me upside down. I can't believe the side effects from Edarbi are such that I went into deep depression and anxiety, and my BP numbers weren't too much lower than with my primary doctor's regimen. I cannot sleep longer than 2 to 4 hours a night, and I am tired to the point of exhaustion. I am getting off Edarbi 40/25 immediately and try to get off these drugs that may help a very few individuals who, because they believe a doctor, will suffer long-term and severe mental and physical psychosis and may harbor suicidal thoughts. Don't be a guinea pig."

For High Blood Pressure "I've been put on this medicine a few days ago for hypertension. The third day of use, I got a bad back pain as if it was my kidney pain, along with tiredness and depression. I am planning to stop after calling my doctor tomorrow."

For High Blood Pressure "I'm a 73-year-old male with hereditary hypertension. I have always maintained a healthy lifestyle, i.e., active and fit with no overweight issues. My cardiologist prescribed Edarbi 80 in 2021 and lowered my BP. After two days, I experienced night after night of insomnia leading to depression and severe anxiety. After three weeks, my BP readings climbed inexplicably after seeming to initially drop to 120/78. My Dr. changed my BP meds, taking me off Edarbi, but he later told me I must get back on it. Now, having taken it for five months, Edarbi 80 no longer works for me with my systolic numbers averaging 155/78. I also continue to experience long-haul insomnia issues, which I believe are caused by Bystolic 80. I am now cutting the pills in half in order to eventually get to a 1/4 tablet, hoping to wean completely off Bystolic. It does not lower my BP, and I pray I no longer dread nighttime insomnia."
