I have been taking Metoprolol Succinate ER 25mg twice a day for almost 4 weeks. I am having a problem with insomnia. Has anyone else had this problem? If so, does it go way with time?

I have been on Metoprolol for 2 yrs 25mg 2x a day and at first I did have the insomnia. It was driving me crazy, I thought I would never sleep normal again. The best thing for me was to follow a plan as anyone would in any case of insomnia. Stick to a bedtime routine. Like they say if you cant fall asleep after being in bed for 30 minutes get out of bed go to a quite room and read a book. the worst thing to do is stay in bed tossing and turning. I started using a magnesium supplement called Natural calm and it really helped me with my insomnia as well as anxiety and headaches. But yes it does get better and you will sleep normal again
