Question 2

Accepted Answer

Not really: Bystolic (nebivolol) is meant to be taken twice a day.  The carvedilol dose of 25 mg is a moderately strong dose and is also meant to be taken twice a day.  In general, physicians do not prescribe Bystolic (nebivolol) once a day.

Question 3

is bystolic or coreg better at lowering htn?  both seem very similar being 3rd gen bbs. which one has the least reported side effects? how do they act differently?

Accepted Answer

HTN: Unless you tend to have a somewhat rapid resting heart rate or known coronary artery disease,, I don't think either one is a first line choice. ACE inhibitors(like lisinopril), , ARB's(like avapro) or calcium channel blockers (like amlodipine) often combined with a low dose diuretic are better choices, in my opinion.

Question 4

Accepted Answer

Coreg (carvedilol): Is used for heart failure or high blood pressure.

At high doses it can cause bronchospasm of the airways, so use with caution with asthmatics.  In men, it can cause ed, although in a minority of patients.

Question 6

can carvedilol to produce diverticulitis?

Accepted Answer

NO: Coreg (carvedilol) ca cause nausea and GI upset, but does not cause diverticulitis.
Diverticula are "out pouchings" of the lining of the GI tract, most commonly found in the colon. When one of these "out pouchings" becomes infected, then it is diverticulitis.

Accepted Answer

See answer: Bystolic (nebivolol) is a beta blocker and the class of beta blockers do have the properties of treating anxiety.

Question 8

can you take suboxone with coreg (carvedilol)?

Accepted Answer

The short answer is: Yes. Assuming of course that you are taking it as directed by a physician who knows you take Coreg (carvedilol) and who prescribed it for you for the treatment of opioid dependence. After all, proper amounts of Buprenorphine are better for you than improper amounts of opioids or narcotics.

Question 9

what is the equivalent dose of bystolic 5mg to inderal?

Accepted Answer

Depends on...: Person asks, What is the equivalent dose of Bystolic to inderal? Depends  on what one is using the meds for. For BP management one can start with Bystolic as low as 2.5mg to the standard dose of 5mg and up to a maximum of 40mg a Day. Inderal has a wider range from 10mg to average range of 120mg-240mg/ day. But one can go up to 640mg on rare occasions. Standard dose for Inderal is 40mg x2/Day

Question 10

why does bystolic say not to take if you get skipped beats?

Accepted Answer

Bystolic=BetaBlocker: Beta Blockers bind to beta receptors (receptors for adrenaline &amp; noradrenaline), at end organ level, without stimulating them. Thus reduce end organ responses to the stimulating neurotransmitters released from nerve endings from brain to end organ. They do not affect parasympathetic acetycholine receptors typically signaling opposite response. Concern=about possibly ↑ing skipping/↓ing heart rate.
