Is Bystolic 5mg Recommended For Three Months Until I Get 20mg Pills?

I am taking Bystolic 5mg and my Doctor wanted to try to increase the dosage to 10mg. She gave a week trial and now wants to increase to 20mg. I had just refilled my script for the 10mg, it is expensive. She wants to give mea script for the 20mg. Can I take 4 - 5mg pills until I run out and then get the script for the 20mg pills. I have a 3 month supply.

Hello,

Yes, you can take four pills, 5 mg that makes. It's the same medical effect but a little uncomfortable taking four pills.


Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
