I had the same experience with Lopressor. My cardiologist continually wants tries to get me to take it again even though my blood pressure does fine with just an ACE inhibitor. Periodically, I humor him and try 25mg daily with the same result. Apparently, cardioligists want cardiac patients to take an ACE inhibitor and a beta blocker since they have ancillary benefits for the heart.
