User Reviews for Coreg CR oral

Have been on this medication (20 MG) for approximately four weeks. Blood pressure is definitely lower. Sometimes hands are a little cold. Occasionally have felt a bit "spacey"; though not extreme nor often. Overall am pleased with results. Will see what doctor thinks next week.

chronic left ventricular failure led to 3 stents and an implanted defibrillator...Did well on coreg for 2 years then had 5 months of severe side effects. nearly everything listed in the books..had to be taken off it.

I take before bed one a day. So far, after 3 weeks, so good. I have a pulse in my right eyelid..don't know why, it comes and goes.

this drug was presribed in conjunction with hydrochlrothiziade(water pill).after 24-36 hours i had extreme cramping in my hands,calves & feet. i also had awful mood changes and was nervous and combative with depression.i stopped the water pill which relieved the cramping but the other symptons remained until i stopped taking the coreg; 12-24 hours after stopping i had severe headaches and heavy pressure in my chest with back pain. AFTER ABOUT 24 HOURS I WAS BACK ALMOST TO NORMAL.

on 80 mg two years for heart failure. Very successful. Function improved from 25% to 45%. controls BP and Heart rate. A little sleepy in AM but also take Lunetsa 3 mg.

feel dizzie when this time release med. kicks in. heart rate went up to 166 over 104. Thought i was a gonner. Whent to er and they found noting wrong. Told me to ask family doc. for advise on this use. I might go back to enalapril 10 mg. This coreg is also 10 m.g.

was doing well for a while but seem to have developed a immunity to it.

No problems or effects.

have difficulty remembering to make this medication

I had a really hard time sleeping while taking this med, and I was so spaced out during the day that I could barely function (office job). I also became pretty deeply depressed, which may have been a byproduct of my exhaustion and spaciness. In all, this is the worst medication I've ever taken. My doctor switched me to Bystolic with an alpha blocker in the evening, which has been equally effective treating my high blood pressure, but with minimal side effects.

Coreg CR did lower my heart rate so that my heart no longer raced on occasion. However, my blood pressure did not go down. The side effects of complete lethargy to the point of just wanting to sit or sleep all day and a complete lack of sex drive made this medication a nightmare. Just switched to Bystolic and after only 1 week have tons more energy.

I was switched from Coreg to Coreg CR. I have had a lot of trouble with the CR. Shortness of breath, numbness in feet and hands, real weak as so on.

20mg.is good for me.I am sleepy for about 2 hours after. then I am O.K. for the rest of the day. Very easy to take, one tab. a day.
