Safe.: Your doctor has replaced one beta blocker with another. Withdrawal symptoms are unlikely and you could take the bystolic as recommended. Since the dosages May be different, it is important for you to follow up with your doctor to make adjustments as needed. Sudden and abrupt withdrawal of beta blockers is not advisable.
