I am getting a continually low VO2 measure because I am taking a beta blocker. I have put that into my health info but the measure is still low. I recently had a stress test and it said I was fine. Is there any way to adjust for this in Health app? It seems that the VO2 measurement is not giving me an accurate measurement of my cardio fitness.

I think it probably is accurate. There is no adjustment to "ignore" the medication which is slowing your heart's effort for good reason.
Talk with your doctor.
Yes, get some information from the cardiologist. Nuclear stress testing of VO2 and trying to estimate VO2 with physical exercise under daily beta blocker medication are not the same thing.
I would think that my nuclear stress test, which indicates a significantly higher VO2 max and no significant coronary issues, is more accurate. But you are correct that I'll be talking to my cardiologist.
