Metoprolol Succinate Uses: Can Ayurveda Help Manage High Blood Pressure Naturally? - #16295

A few months ago, my doctor prescribed metoprolol succinate for high blood pressure. I had been experiencing frequent headaches, dizziness, and a racing heartbeat, especially during stressful situations. My BP readings were consistently high, sometimes reaching 150/95, and my doctor said I needed medication to keep it under control. Since starting metoprolol succinate, I’ve noticed some improvements—my heart rate feels more stable, and I don’t get dizzy as often. But at the same time, I’ve been feeling more tired than usual, and sometimes I get cold hands and feet. I looked into the side effects of metoprolol succinate uses, and fatigue, slow heart rate, and circulation issues seem to be common. Now I’m wondering if there’s a natural way to manage my BP without depending on this medication for life. Can Ayurveda offer a long-term solution for high blood pressure instead of relying on metoprolol succinate? I read that herbs like Arjuna and Ashwagandha help regulate BP and improve heart function—do they work as effectively as beta-blockers? Also, are there any specific Ayurvedic dietary changes that can help lower blood pressure naturally? Another thing—I’ve noticed my digestion feels sluggish ever since I started taking metoprolol succinate. Could this medication be affecting my metabolism? Ayurveda emphasizes gut health in managing overall well-being, so should I be doing something to balance my digestion while on this medication? If anyone here has successfully reduced their dependence on metoprolol succinate through Ayurveda, what worked for you? Did herbs, yoga, or Panchakarma therapy help? I really want to find a natural approach to managing my heart health without relying on long-term medication.
