I’ve been on a daily dose of 40mg, initially prescribed to me for the swelling in my legs and feet, as well as my high blood pressure. I’ve been on this regimen for several years. Recently, I’ve lost a significant amount of weight, and my blood pressure is well-controlled. My overall health is in good shape. However, my kidneys are now showing signs of dehydration. I’ve been taken off most of my blood pressure medications and currently only take 50mg of metoprolol daily along with this medication. I discovered that the swelling in my legs was a side effect of another blood pressure medication, so they promptly discontinued it, and I no longer have any swelling. I’m uncertain why I’m still on this medication, and I’m wondering if it could be causing my kidneys to show signs of dehydration. I have diabetes and neuropathy in my feet.
