Hello I take Coreg for my BMD related heart problems. It is a good drug that has some good benefits. However, I have found that as I increase the dosage I gain weight and lose muscle strength. I have been able to find a good balance of dosage that gives me the intended benefits, while not decreasing my muscle strength to an unacceptable level. Kevin

I've been taking Coreg for the past few years now. At first I was taking it twice a day but I noticed it made me more lethargic/depressed than I liked. So now I take one pill once a day. Supposedly, according to my cardiologist, my heart is fine. The only reason I take this and Enalapril is because I had low blood pressure and the doctors thought I might as well start taking meds before the BMD started affecting my heart.
