Problems With Lopressor- Cold Feet And Hair Falling Out.

Recommended Posts

Anyone else have this problem? My feet are soo cold all the time they are white. Since increasing my dose a few days ago I sometimes have neuropathy pains in my feet. My scalp is also numb sometimes. I have raynaud's and read somewhere you aren't supposed to take lopressor if you have raynauds. Does anyone else have raynauds and take lopressor with any problems?

Any advice on different betablockers? I think it's time to switch.

Hi Sara,

If you have raynauds, and the drug is contraindicated for people with raynauds, then perhaps you should talk to your doctor about switching.

I'm not on beta-blockers but I do have raynauds and I was warned that exaccerbations in the condition can lead to gangrene, so it's not something to ignore. If your feet are turning white/blue for long periods of time, that's not good.

Hopefully you can switch medications and everything will work out! Let us know how it goes :)
