User Comments about Coreg
25 Mar 2013 This drug leaves you feeling exhausted,out of breath and has possibly caused neuropathy for me.And i am not diabetic.The joint pain tiredness and weight gain seem to outweigh the benefits for me. I am trying to change meds.Ithas helped the BP which is the only reason prescribed.But my heart rate is constantly low .average mi 60s even while walking moviing around.Not good!

11 Jun 2010 its reccomended that i take it by my doctor. i have no choice but to follow his advice if i want to stay alive. i dont really like pills so if i didnt have to take it i wouldnt take it. but overall i guess it works so it serves its purpose.
