A member asked:
What happens when you suddenly stop taking blood pressure meds such as beta blockers for two weeks? i have heart palpitations and severe nausea now

Depends why you take: Beta Blockers usually completely out of body by 2-3 days. Question is, why do you take the Beta Blocker? If you take because of Palpitations they may return. If you take them for Heart Failure, that may get worse. If you take them because of Coronary Heart Disease, that may become symptomatic. Nausea can be a sign of Coronary Disease, you are only 34, still possible. Never just stop, must taper

Rebound: You should call and visit your physician as soon as possible. You may have rebound hypertension from abruptly stopping your medicine. Good luck.
