I was on Toprol xl 200mg for 6.5 years and diovan !!!!!
had subborn high blood pressure ! it was the one of the worse ever b.p meds iv taken
I was a walking zombie - forgot what it was like to be normal - depression and anxiety and pannic attacks were common everyday on this stuff !
im on a ccb cal channel blocker now.. and having a world of problems !
zestril (lisinopril ) has some pertty bad side effects too! - with chemical meds its a no win deal, with side effects - they all have them !!
It took me aprox 4 to 5 months to ween off the toprol xl -
mustangGirl0716 : did your doctor put on meds for depression and anxiety after being
put on the toprol xl ? or before ??
as I came down with depression and anxiety and pannic attacks ,after I was on the stuff
then was treated for it.. with other meds ! its a ban aid to mask the side effects of toprol xl .. best to get off the junk !
try something diffrent ..

I am very interested to hear how this works out for you. I, too, take Toprol XL as well as meds for depression and anxiety and have just learned about these problems with it.
