"This was originally recommended to me when I had the diagnosis of POTS. Since that makes it off-label, it cost $700 for one month of the medication. It turned out that I have coronary microvascular disease, which still makes it off-label, but the angina was so bad that I was willing to try anything, and I was told that this was very safe. I was only able to use it for 3 days before waking up with AFIB. I felt like my neck and chest were going to explode. I immediately restarted my beta blocker. I hate that I spent $700 for three days' worth of pills that landed me in the back of an ambulance and at the ER. I was also even more weak, dizzy, and lethargic than normal. And my resting heart rate was ~90-100 when, while on the BB, it was ~70-80. I was told it would get better. Clearly, it got much worse. And even without a high heart rate, I felt like I could barely breathe."

"I started taking the medication in November 2020. History of tachycardia, heart rate 216. Now when I have episodes, heart rate is under control, 100. Very pleased with my outcome, and I’m taking 2.5 mg x 2 a day, and it’s working out, so thankful."

"Wow, this drug gave me my life back. Having POTS syndrome (with no cure) left me almost bedridden. Every time I would stand up, my heart rate would go through the roof. I have been on this drug for 5 years now, and I'm finally stable!!!"
