Bisoprolol

bisoprolol fumarate (2,5mg) for heart failure (HF)
the worst side effect is that nothing has changed and I'm not really getting better. all sorts of so-called life-lengthening drugs but I'd rather have a heart scarred by life than by operations.

dabigatran etexilate mesilate (110mg) for heart failure (HF)
After serious heart failure and two weeks heart monitoring I was send home with Pradaxa 110mg and more meds such as Verapamil to keep everything under control. The capsules are easy to take. Everything reminds me to take it easy, that I’m not the person I used to be. I tire more quickly and am often out of breath, but my doctor says I could still live to a 100 years.

perindopril tert-butylamine (4mg) for heart failure (HF)
Up to now I have found the side effects very troubling. Sometimes so tired I don't even know myself. I also think I am more breathless and therefore drowsy. Definitely going to the GP for an alternative.

Metoprolol Tartrate

metoprolol tartrate (50mg) for heart failure (HF)
I've been on metoprolol, as well as Ramipril and spirinolacton, since 2012 because of heart failure. Since then, because my pump function went down to 17%, the dose was increased to 200 mg a day. This gave me really low BP and I was really tired and grumpy. In consultation with the doctor, reduced this down to 50 mg. Pump function increased to 35%. I work full time. And I try to take as few med...
