Hello. One day in the morning I had a diastolic pressure of 157, systolic pressure at 128, pulse ranged from 100 bpm when sitting and 127 when moving. I went to my gp and she signed me with concor 5 mg (as I read, it is similar to bisoprolol – epinephrine and norepinephrine suppressor). She also signed noofen (active component phenibutin). I cut the concor tablet in half as my gp had instructed. All my blood pressure and pulse went back to normal. I drank concor with interruptions (my bad), I only read it online that I shouldn't have stopped. So, I resumed. Noofen stopped due to waking up at night needing to urinate. Eyes - all red. That is why I reduced the dosage to one noofen tablet. Also, I read herbal tea, such as camomile tea I drank may have had interaction with noofen making it stronger. During the day today, I had concor and vitamin d supplement (2000 iu - i'm at 18,30 units, whereas everything below 19,30 is considered - deficit). I drank about 5 tablets of vitamin d so far. As I read, concor has not shown any interactions with vitamin d supplements. Drank some 5 tablets of magnesium with b6 then stopped. Only natural food sources and natural vitamin sources. I'm ok with pulse 63 when being active, though my diastolic is lowered from 120/80 - it is 109/69. Whenever I lie down I can feel my heart beats in my head, feel a slight ringing noise in my ears. The pulse is within the normal range, but I can feel the pulse in my head and that makes it harder for me to sleep well. My question here is, as I don't find sleeplessness among concor side effects, why does a normal pulse of 63 bpm keeps me awake? I also feel my heart to speed up a bit when I eat well. Today, I was fishing in open-air and stood for a number of hours. Felt lightheaded afterwards, almost fell asleep on the bench, but couldn't since my normal, but hard heart pulse is pounding in my head. Back home, I measured my cardiac: 109 / 71 / 63 bpm. I had blood tests, urine tests - no diabetes, no infections, cholesterol levels fine, as at/alat - fine, hgb is 161 units - 160 being the top limit. Rest blood parameters within normal ranges. Gp stated I have vegetative-cardiovascular dystonia due to stress. I don't consume alcohol, I don't smoke or consume drugs. Healthy lifestyle. Motion every day, though with covid19 I do sit more in front of pc. Though there were times I sat even more and nothing happened. I'm about to have a holter monitor, but i'm afraid they will not notice anything unusual as 63 bpm and anything less than 120/80 would be dismissed as ok. It bothers me that I cannot sleep well. I wake up at night or feel my heart fluttering. I've tried changing postures. I don't sleep on the left side as it makes me aware of the heartbeats. I'm on concor for about 2 months now. I've stopped it for two days in a row and didn't notice any difference. My heart didn't race. I don't eat sugary foods before sleep as it also outputs energy that has to go somewhere. I don't eat 3 hours before bed. Drinking noofen before bed eases the tension and muscles. Kinda makes you sleep, but I do not drop to a rem-sleep. I sleep superficially and the drug. Mint tea doesn't help, so is valerian. Trying a mix if herbs called novo-past as my psychologist advised. I went to a psychotherapist, she sees no problems with me. I don’t have any other symptoms. I had sweats in my feet and hands before. But those are gone. Have changed blanket so I don’t overheat or sweat at night. I tried to rule out foods that I eat or what I drink. But to no avail. There was a week when I almost ate nothing but drank water. Whenever I have an erection at night, I also have an increased heart rate. Unless I wake up or become mildly conscious, it keeps going. During the day, I don’t feel any sex drive, plus as I read concor causes erectile dysfunction. I just want to drop in my sleep. Need help.

Concor contains bisoprolol which is a beta - blocker. They are known to cause erectile dysfunction. You can stop concor and start Tab Nevy 5mg once a day .It is also a beta -blocker but doesn't cause erectile dysfunction.
Keep monitoring your BP and heart rate and give me feedback.

Concor is bisoprolol a beta blocker used to treat hypertension. It can reduce the increased bp of your anxiety, but does not address the cause of anxiety, which is reduced/ altered serotnergic pathways in your mind, so ideally, consult any psychiatrist in person or online and get the cause of your anxiety treated with a course of ssris for effective treatment. Good luck.

It is generally not used as first line of treatment.
Hypertension at 22 years also needs detailed investigations to find out secondary etiologies
if not done you should have creatinine, electrolytes, usg abdomen with renal doppler done. Also get bp checked in both arms and legs.
You can start taking telmisaratan with chlorthalidone 40/6.25 once a day and increase to 80 mg if necessary.

Yes it is good for him.& it will affect the blood pressure mildly. But.
