Hello, I have entered my menopause 4 years ago and I have problems with my heart and thyroid gland (hyperthyroidism). That is why I am taking beta blockers. I have to admit that beta blockers helped my condition, but it seems that I have subdued to some side effect. Can you tell me something about breathing problems and beta blockers?
Yes indeed, one of the unwanted side effects of beta blockers is asthma-like attacks. This possibility if highly decreased with the proper choosing of beta blocker. Unfortunately, there are also some other side effects that might pose a question about the benefit of the medication. But still, since it might pass as a heart medication, I think that it should be used.
