Concor AM5 contains bisoprolol, which naturally lowers your heart rate, and amlodipine. While a heart rate of 50 to 60 beats per minute can be safe if you feel fine, it is completely reasonable to discuss alternatives with your doctor. They may suggest switching to medications that control blood pressure without slowing your heart, such as an angiotensin receptor blocker (like losartan) or an ACE inhibitor (like lisinopril). Please consult your doctor before making any changes so they can safely guide your transition.
