Composition of Metolar XR 100

Uses of Metolar XR 100

  • Hypertension (high blood pressure)
  • angina pectoris
  • chronic heart failure (stable)
  • prevention of recurrent myocardial infarction

How Metolar XR 100 works

Metoprolol is a selective beta-1 adrenergic blocker. It reduces heart rate and the force of contraction, thereby lowering blood pressure and myocardial oxygen demand. In heart failure, it helps improve cardiac function over time by reducing sympathetic overactivity.

How to take Metolar XR 100

Oral prolonged-release tablet. Take once daily at the same time each day; swallow whole with water (do not crush/chew/split). Can be taken with or without food; follow your doctor’s prescribed dose and taper only under medical supervision.

Take it exactly as your doctor prescribed. Do not change the dose or stop early on your own.

Missed dose and overdose

If you miss a dose

Take it as soon as you remember. If your next dose is almost due, skip the one you missed — never take two doses together to catch up.

If you take too much

An overdose of this medicine can cause a dangerously slow heartbeat, a severe fall in blood pressure, wheezing and fits. Do not wait for symptoms to appear — go to the nearest emergency department and take the pack or strip with you.

  • constipation
