I'm a 21-year-old guy and I've been taking Concor Cor 2.5 mg every day for the past couple of months to help with chest pain, not for high blood pressure. I'm feeling better now and was wondering how I can stop taking it safely without causing any problems? I'd really appreciate your advice!

I'm wondering if I should stop taking Concur cor 2.5 that I've been on for a month. I found out last month during a routine check-up that I had a 7.5 load of APCs supraventricular in the holter, which is why it was prescribed. But I didn't really have any symptoms before, and Im not feeling any now. Lots of folks say I might not have needed it in the first place, and I'm a bit worried that taking it when it's not necessary might have side effects. If I do decide to stop, what's the best way to taper off since I heard stopping beta blockers suddenly isn't good? Also, are there any follow-up tests I should be doing after I stop the medication? My echo was normal last month.
It is important not to stop beta blockers suddenly to avoid any rebound effects. Since you have been taking Concor Cor 2.5 for a month and are feeling fine, you can consider tapering off the medication gradually. I recommend reducing the dosage by half for a week, then halving it again for another week before stopping completely. This tapering schedule helps your body adjust gradually and reduces the risk of any withdrawal symptoms. Regarding side effects, taking Concor Cor 2.5 for a month is generally safe, especially if you have not experienced any bothersome symptoms. Common side effects may include fatigue, dizziness, or changes in heart rate, but if you have not noticed any issues, it is unlikely that you will experience them now. Since your echo results were normal last month, there may not be an immediate need for follow-up tests after stopping the medication. However, it is always a good idea to consult with your healthcare provider before making any changes to your medication regimen to ensure it is safe and appropriate for your individual health needs.
