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'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."

For High Blood Pressure "Have never felt the same since being on Edarbi. Numbers went low, so went on half dose. Still low. The drug made me tired and totally fatigued. Lightheaded, also jittery feeling. I stopped it a week ago and hope it leaves my system soon. Also had tummy problems with it."
