In Reply to: verapamil-should it be taken year round????? posted by karen on February 21, 2000 at 20:41:02:
You know, I don't think any of my doctors have ever said whether or not to continue the Verapamil for a long period of time. I think my prescription was for a month's supply with 2 months of refills. I didn't go for a follow-up after I got the medicine in November. I quit taking it in December because I didn't need it, I thought. I am having shadows and maybe will start back. It scares me when people talk about medicines losing their effectiveness. I know I had to get a stronger dosage the last time. So I would be interested in whatever you discover. This has been discussed before but I simply don't have the time to look up all those older posts.
