Does the treatment of high blood pressure cause insomnia?

bliss22 asked:


I take betablocker (Toprop XL) for high blood pressure and also a statin (Lovastatin) for high cholesterol. I have noticed quite a decrease in the amount and quality of my sleep . It is difficult for me to fall asleep, I wake up during the night, and I wake up early feeling tired. My question to a professional is: is there a connection?
Thanks.

Melinda

      Insomnia is not given in the side effects of Lovastatin. One site says about toprolXL-
      Tiredness and dizziness have occurred in about 10 of 100 patients. Depression has been reported in about 5 of 100 patients. Mental confusion and short-term memory loss have been reported. Headache, somnolence, nightmares, and insomnia have also been reported- this is from-
      So it could be due to Toprol XL
