What Causes Dizziness And Stomach Ache While On Carvedilol?
Yes, maybe you can help me. I have been on carvedilol since March 2012. I have quite a few of the symptoms listed for this drug. Such as, dizziness, upset stomach, pain in stomach (stomach spasms), shortness of breath, foot pain, and most of all my heart is beating 121 beats per minute. Could this medicine cause some or most of these symptoms?

some of them could be symptoms due to the drugs, but not most of them.. your heart rate of 121 is definately not a symptom due to carvedilol as it tends to decrease heart rate and not increase it. shortness of breath can occur if you already have a lung disease. are you on some other medication as well? did you get your blood pressure done? kindly get an ecg and echocardiography done, these symptoms could be due to worsening heart disease. meet a cardiologist
