Detailed Answer:
Welcome To HCM. I am Dr Anshul Varshney.
I understand your concern.
Bystolic contains a drug Nevibilol which is a beta blocker. Yes it can cause some depressive feeling in many people.
Azor contains two drugs Amlodipine and Olmesartan. Now Amlodipine can cause swelling over feet and sometimes on body leading to weight gain.
So,your symptom corelatation might be right.
Don't worry I'll help you with choosing the best drug for you.
But I need a few more details to help you:
1. What was your initial range of BP when you were started on medications?
2. What is your current BP on medications?
3. What is your resting pulse rate?
4. Any other medical problem like Diabetes, Hypothyroidism, Asthma you have?
5. How about your Kidney Functions and cardiac status ?
Revert with these details for a better help.
Stay Healthy.
