Metoprolol succinate (extended-release) 50 mg
Treatment of hypertension (high blood pressure), angina pectoris (chest pain), rate control in tachyarrhythmias; also used in stable chronic heart failure as part of combination therapy (as advised by doctor)
Metoprolol is a cardioselective beta-1 blocker that reduces the effect of adrenaline on the heart. It slows heart rate and decreases cardiac contractility, lowering blood pressure and reducing oxygen demand of the heart.
Tablet (likely sustained/extended release): take exactly as prescribed, usually once daily at the same time, preferably with or immediately after food. Swallow whole; do not crush/chew/split extended-release tablets. Do not stop suddenly without medical advice.
Common side effects of TELCURE BETA 50 TAB may include:
May cause dizziness—avoid driving if affected. Do not stop abruptly (risk of rebound hypertension/angina). Use with caution in asthma/COPD (may worsen bronchospasm), diabetes (can mask hypoglycemia symptoms), peripheral vascular disease, thyroid disorders, liver impairment, and in patients with bradycardia, heart block, or acute decompensated heart failure. Monitor pulse and BP regularly.
