Metoray XL 25 Tablet

Metoray Xl 25 Tablet contains Metoprolol succinate extended-release 25 mg. Prescription required.

Treatment of hypertension (high blood pressure), angina pectoris (chest pain), chronic heart failure (stable), and to reduce risk of cardiovascular events as prescribed

Metoprolol is a cardioselective beta-1 adrenergic blocker. It reduces heart rate, cardiac output and renin release, thereby lowering blood pressure and decreasing the heart’s oxygen demand. The XL (extended-release) form provides controlled drug release over 24 hours.

Tablet for oral use. Take once daily at the same time each day, preferably with or immediately after food; swallow whole with water—do not crush or chew (extended-release). Dose and duration as prescribed; do not stop suddenly without medical advice.

Dizziness, fatigue, slow heart rate (bradycardia), low blood pressure, headache, nausea, diarrhea/constipation, cold hands and feet, sleep disturbance

Do not stop abruptly (may worsen angina or trigger heart attack). Use with caution in asthma/COPD, diabetes (may mask hypoglycemia), thyroid disorders, peripheral vascular disease, kidney/liver impairment, and in patients with slow pulse, heart block, or acute decompensated heart failure. Monitor blood pressure and pulse regularly. Seek urgent care for very slow heartbeat, fainting, wheeze/shortness of breath, or swelling/rapid weight gain.

Other antihypertensives (additive hypotension), verapamil/diltiazem, digoxin (bradycardia/heart block), antiarrhythmics (e.g., amiodarone), clonidine (rebound hypertension on withdrawal), insulin/oral antidiabetics (masked hypoglycemia), NSAIDs (may reduce BP control), CYP2D6 inhibitors such as fluoxetine/paroxetine/quinidine (increase metoprolol levels)

Store below 25°C in a dry place, protected from light and moisture. Keep in original blister pack and out of reach of children.
