Posted on Wed, 12 Jun 2024

Question: So I relapsed on methamphetamine and GHB after about a week long of sobriety. After doing those two drugs earlier this evening I took a Nebivolol 10 mg tablet to get my pulse rate and bp down. Should I be concerned about adding the Beta Blocker to the mix or should I head up to and ER?

Hi.
As of now your pulse and BP are still in the acceptable range and thus no need to take any emergency treatment. You should not take any drugs without advice from your treating physician as it may cause deleterious effects on your health.
