Headache, fatigue, and dizziness are the most common side effects that have been reported with
Bystolic® (
nebivolol). Problems that occur more infrequently but are potentially serious (and should be reported to your healthcare provider) include chest pain, difficult or painful breathing, a slow heart rate, and fainting.
A number of more serious problems have also been reported with Bystolic. This medication could worsen many conditions, including
heart failure,
asthma or
COPD (
chronic obstructive pulmonary disease), low
blood pressure, and peripheral artery disease (PAD). In order to help minimize this risk, tell your healthcare provider about all existing medical conditions you have before starting Bystolic.
Also, if you abruptly stop the medication, serious problems (including
heart attacks) could occur. Your healthcare provider will advise you on how to safely stop taking this medication. It is usually recommended to slowly reduce the dose over a period of one to two weeks, with careful monitoring.
