. Headaches
Posted over a year ago
Been on the drug for about a month now. At first I seemed fine...now for the last 2 weeks I have been experiencing terrible headaches. Seems like I am never without one. Is this a side effect of the drug?
Cmdiedrich - I am a sixty year old woman with high blood presser. I had been taking Metoprolol XL time released medication for 3 years. I was experiencing low grade headaches, all the time. After a while they became worst. Also, I noticed I bruise quite a bit and the skin on my arms got thin and tore if I scretched my self. I became very worried. I talked to my pharmaciest and decided to try Metoprolol ER, one in the AM and one again in the PM. My headaches seemed to get better. I also noticed the skin on my arms is still thin and bruises but does not tear as easy. Has any one else had problems like this?
