Selotol XL 25 Tab

Tablet

Treatment of hypertension (high blood pressure), chronic stable angina (chest pain), adjunct in chronic heart failure (as prescribed), rate control in certain tachyarrhythmias (as advised by doctor).

Metoprolol is a selective beta-1 adrenergic blocker. It reduces heart rate and the force of contraction, lowering blood pressure and myocardial oxygen demand, thereby helping prevent angina and controlling heart rate.

Tablet (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 or split unless advised. Do not stop suddenly without medical advice.

Tiredness, dizziness, slow heart rate (bradycardia), low blood pressure, headache, nausea, cold hands/feet, sleep disturbances

Do not stop abruptly (may worsen angina/trigger rebound hypertension). Use with caution in asthma/COPD, diabetes (may mask hypoglycemia symptoms), peripheral vascular disease, thyroid disorders, depression, liver impairment. Contraindicated in severe bradycardia, 2nd/3rd degree heart block, cardiogenic shock, decompensated heart failure unless stabilized. Monitor BP and pulse regularly.

Other antihypertensives (additive hypotension), calcium channel blockers like verapamil/diltiazem (bradycardia/heart block), digoxin (bradycardia), antiarrhythmics like amiodarone (conduction issues), clonidine (rebound hypertension if stopped improperly), NSAIDs (may reduce BP-lowering effect), CYP2D6 inhibitors like fluoxetine/paroxetine/quinidine (increase metoprolol levels), insulin/oral antidiabetics (mask hypoglycemia).

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