Metozen Xl 25 Tabs (20X10) Metoprolol 25 Mg Extended Release by Elder

What is it used for?
Metoprolol extended-release is commonly prescribed to lower high blood pressure and help manage certain heart conditions, including a fast or irregular heartbeat, angina, and heart failure. The exact use depends on the doctor's prescription.

How does it work?
It is a beta-blocker that slows the heart rate and reduces the force of the heartbeat. This lowers blood pressure and reduces the heart's workload.

How to take/use it
Take it exactly as prescribed, usually at the same time each day. Swallow the extended-release tablet whole; do not crush or chew it. Take it consistently with or without food, as directed. Do not stop it suddenly without medical advice.

Common side effects
Tiredness, dizziness, slow heartbeat, low blood pressure, cold hands or feet, nausea, and headache.

Precautions
Tell the doctor about asthma or other breathing problems, a very slow heartbeat, low blood pressure, heart block, heart failure, diabetes, or circulation problems. It may hide some warning signs of low blood sugar. Avoid driving if dizzy. Do not stop treatment suddenly, as this may worsen heart problems. Tell the doctor about all other medicines being taken, and seek advice before use during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
