Metoprolol Tartrate is an antihypertensive medication used alone or with other drugs to treat high blood pressure (hypertension), symptoms of an overactive thyroid, angina (heart-related chest pain), arrhythmia (heart rhythm disorder), and to relieve migraine-related headaches.
Metoprolol Tartrate relaxes blood vessels by blocking the action of certain natural substances in the body. It slows down the heart rate, making it easier for the heart to pump blood, which lowers blood pressure and reduces the risk of stroke, heart attack, and other heart or kidney problems.
Take Metoprolol Tartrate as prescribed by your doctor. It needs to be taken regularly to be effective. Do not stop taking it without consulting your doctor, as abrupt cessation may cause heart rhythm changes, chest pain, or a heart attack. Your doctor will advise how to gradually reduce the dose if necessary.
Common side effects include tiredness, dizziness, stomach pain, nightmares, irregular heart rate, and skin rash. These typically do not require medical attention and resolve over time. If they persist, consult your doctor.
Drinking alcohol may increase tiredness, and lower blood pressure causing dizziness or drowsiness. So avoid its intake with Betaloc 25mg Tablet.
Betaloc 25mg Tablet is not recommended during pregnancy unless your doctor considers it essential. Your doctor will weigh the benefits and any potential risks before prescribing it to you.

Betaloc 25 is a short-acting beta blocker that works specifically on the heart. It works by slowing down the heart rate and makes the heart more efficient at pumping blood around the body.
An overdose of metoprolol may result in severe hypotension, sinus bradycardia, AV block, heart failure, cardiogenic shock, cardiac arrest, bronchospasm, impairment of consciousness, coma, nausea, vomiting, cyanosis, hypoglycemia, and occasionally hyperkalemia. Symptoms usually appear within 20 minutes to 2 hours of ingestion. Treatment includes monitoring cardiovascular, respiratory, and renal function, as well as blood glucose and electrolytes. Prevent further absorption through vomiting, gastric lavage, or activated charcoal if recent. Symptomatic treatment may require sympathomimetic agents (e.g., noradrenaline, metaraminol), atropine, or inotropic agents (e.g., dopamine, dobutamine). Temporary pacing may be needed for AV block. Glucagon can reverse excessive beta-blockade effects. Intravenous beta2-stimulants (e.g., terbutaline) may relieve bronchospasm. Hemodialysis is not effective.
Common side effects include tiredness, dizziness, depression, diarrhea, itching or rash, shortness of breath, slow heart rate, mental confusion, headache, somnolence, nightmares, insomnia, dyspnea, nausea, dry mouth, gastric pain, constipation, flatulence, digestive tract disorders, heartburn, pruritus, musculoskeletal pain, blurred vision, decreased libido, and tinnitus. AV block intensification has also been reported.
Betaloc 25mg Tablet is indicated for the management of hypertension and angina pectoris, treatment of cardiac arrhythmias, especially supraventricular tachyarrhythmias, and as an adjunct in hyperthyroidism treatment. Early intervention with Betaloc in acute myocardial infarction reduces infarct size and the incidence of ventricular fibrillation. It can also provide pain relief, reducing the need for opiate analgesics. Betaloc has demonstrated a reduction in mortality in patients with acute myocardial infarction.
Metoprolol is a selective beta1-blocker. It diminishes the agonistic effects of catecholamines on the heart, which are released during physical and mental stress. As a result, Metoprolol reduces the usual increase in heart rate, cardiac output, cardiac contractility, and blood pressure that catecholamines cause. Compared to non-selective beta-blockers, Metoprolol has less impact on insulin release and carbohydrate metabolism and interferes less with the cardiovascular response to hypoglycemia.
Film-coated tablet:
Catecholamine-depleting drugs (e.g., Reserpine, Monoamine Oxidase (MAO) inhibitors) may enhance the effects of beta-blockers. Drugs inhibiting CYP2D6 (e.g., quinidine, fluoxetine, paroxetine, propafenone) can increase Betaloc concentration, decreasing its cardioselectivity. Concomitant use of digitalis glycosides and beta-blockers raises the risk of bradycardia. Beta-blockers may exacerbate rebound hypertension following the withdrawal of clonidine.
Betaloc is contraindicated in AV block, uncontrolled heart failure, severe bradycardia, sick sinus syndrome, cardiogenic shock, severe peripheral arterial disease, known hypersensitivity to Metoprolol or other beta-blockers, and in myocardial infarction complicated by significant bradycardia, first-degree heart block, systolic hypotension (<100mmHg), and/or severe heart failure.
Pregnancy: Category C. Use during pregnancy only if clearly needed.
Lactation: Metoprolol is excreted in small quantities in breast milk. Caution is advised when administered to nursing women.
Store in a cool, dry place, protected from light.
