About this product

Overview

Mepresor 200mg Tablet contain metoprolol, a beta-blocker that is primarily used to manage hypertension (high blood pressure) and prevent complications like strokes and heart attacks. Metoprolol is also effective in treating angina (chest pain) and can help reduce the risk of further cardiovascular events following a heart attack. Additionally, it is used in the management of certain types of heart arrhythmias.

Uses

  • Management of hypertension.
  • Treatment of angina pectoris.
  • Prevention of myocardial infarction (heart attack) recurrence.
  • Management of heart rhythm disorders.
  • Treatment of heart failure as part of combination therapy.

How It Works

Metoprolol works by blocking the action of certain natural chemicals in your body, such as epinephrine, on the heart and blood vessels. This effect reduces heart rate, blood pressure, and strain on the heart.

Directions for Use

  • Take Mepresor 200mg Tablets as prescribed by your doctor. It is usually taken once daily with or immediately following a meal.
  • Do not stop taking this medication abruptly without consulting your doctor as it can cause serious complications, especially if you have coronary artery disease.

Precautions

  • Inform your doctor about any pre-existing conditions like asthma, bronchitis, diabetes, or thyroid disorders, as metoprolol can sometimes worsen these conditions.
  • May cause dizziness or fatigue; do not drive or operate heavy machinery until you know how this drug affects you.
  • Monitor your blood pressure and heart rate regularly.

Common side effects include:

  • Fatigue

  • Swelling of the ankles or feet
  • Sudden weight gain

When Not to Use
