I was put on generic Toprol XL back in April. I was in the hospital for panic attacks and my heart turned out to be ok. Now I feel stuck having to take this medication because my body is used to it. I should have turned it town when it was first prescribed and tried to bring it down naturally. Has anyone had this dilemma and been successful in weaning of this medication?
Thanks,
Mark

Thanks for your post. The best thing to do when wanting to stop taking a medication prescribed by a doctor is to check with that doctor. There may in fact be good reasons to stay on the medication. As well, your doctor may be able to supervise a weaning to more a natural approach.
All the best, sue
