What steps should a patient take if they experience dizziness (suspected low blood pressure) and a heightened sensitivity to salty tastes after two months of taking Concor Cor (bisoprolol) 2.5 mg daily for hypertension?
Dizziness can happen as your body adjusts to bisoprolol (Concor Cor) lowering your blood pressure, especially when standing up. While less common, changes in taste can also occur. For now, please rise slowly from sitting or lying down, drink plenty of water, and keep a log of your blood pressure if you can. Most importantly, please contact your doctor before making any changes. They can safely check your pressure and adjust your dose if needed. Do not stop taking your medication suddenly.
