    The first thing I noticed when I was on Bisoprolol was the dull headache that started 2 hours after taking the pill.

    Hi, my AF has returned after 5 years (had cardioversion in 2011) and my bisoprolol has been doubled from 2.5 to 5mg dose after recent chest pains. Have had a few headaches but main problem is general fog, lethargic and tiredness. Having spent yesterday just sitting and dozing today I am changing my medication schedule from morning to evening to see if that helps.

    Hi could you tell me if by taking bisoprolol in the evening it was better for you. I have just been diagnosed with AF and at the momentit all seems very scary , i suffer very badly with anxiety and panic attacks so  would be interested in how you got on.

    Hi. I had to come off it due to headaches and "zombie" state. I was swapped to Verapamil which was better. Following first ablation, i was then weaned off that as pulse had stopped racing, so just on Rivaroxaban now.
