While they may produce benefits for people with cardiovascular issues. However, the very slow heart rates are a problem. Certainly for me. I was prescribed Metoprolol for issues with episodes of chest pain, dizzyness, weakness, nausea, and existing blood pressure issues, and a previous aortic anyeurysm. After about 6 months, this became accompanied with near blackouts, and a blackout that left me with a broken nose a cromagon like protruding eye brow, rug rash on my face, and racion face from the black eyes for two or three weeks. The funny thing is, that that all of my tests suggested that my heart was fine. EKGs up to that point were fine, the labs were fine, the stress test was fine, and tge heart cath was fine. A previous Holter moniter only revealed a few intermittant episodes of both vestibular tachycardia and ventrivular tachycardia, eack presenting apart from the other. That was before the medication. What happened after all these issues, after the blackout, when they tried the Holter monitor again, was that they found several instances of my heart completely stopping for 5 to 8 seconds at a time. They called me back to the hospital and got me into pacemaker surgery as soon as possible. I think it is safe to say that beta blockers are not for everyone.
