Repatha

Evolocumab (140mg/ml) for heart failure (HF)

Had loads of problems with the existing statins. At the express request of the cardiologist I am now trying Repatha. LDL down from 8.2 to 0.9. Works perfectly and so the one injection every two weeks is definitely paying for itself.

Metoprolol

Metoprolol (50mg) for heart failure (HF)

I've been on Metoprolol since 2012, as well as Ramipril and Spirinolacton because of heart failure. Since then, the pump function of my heart has fallen to just 17% and the dose has been increased to 200 mg a day. This gave me very low blood pressure and I was really tired and short. After talking to the doctor, we reduced this to 50 mg. Pump function went back up to 35%. I work full time. And...

Bisoprolol (2,5mg) for heart failure (HF)

I've been using this medicine since 2011. 1.25 mg, very low dose. I've had different different makes of bisoprolol but all have had serious side effects such as depression and most of all really horrible nightmares that you can't wake up from. I had the most side effects with Sandoz. In 2014 they changed the composition and once again I am experiencing nasty, vivid dreams. I am also irritable a...

Metoprolol

Metoprolol (100mg) for heart failure (HF)

I have gained 15 kg since I started thin medicine and suffer with shortness of breath, poor sleep and feeling of fullness, heavy legs (water retention). Now even 3 weeks after stopping taking this medicine, it still hasn't had the desired effect: blood pressure and heart rate high; although I do feel less full. My GP has started me on furosemide and if this doesn't work then restart metoprolol ...
