Toprol-XL and liver

I have been on this med for 8 yrs and trying to get off it. It is a horrible drug. i take it because i had a kidney transplant that messed up my blood preasure. I had all the syptoms of anxiety because this med and now taken lexpro to balance out the anxiety. im glad i came across the page cause i take so many meds for my transplant and on top of the blood preasure and now anxiety meds its taken a tole on my liver. so i will definitley talk to my doctor about getting me off the lexapro and trying a different blood preasure med. I also gained alot of weight but it might because of all the meds i take. i went from 170-263lb in 8 yrs

Toprol is a beta blocker and so high doses will really monkey with your hormones. A beta blocker stops the action of adrenaline and tons of other body chemicals that are very necessary for certain functions that are unfortunately also controlled by the same body chemicals that cause the heart to beat very fast and blood pressure to raise. So you can expect to have symptoms that mimic hormone imbalances like hypothyroid or PMS because it all comes down to hormones.

If, however, you're getting GERD, then it means your liver is veyr much overwhelmed by all the bad foods, phony fats and pharmeceuticals you've been taking. ******

Hope that helps! :)
