(Newest replies first)

I have been given 3 different pills stating they are the same. Round extra large and now pink ones. someone needs held accountable. I could not breathe, cough, swelling in my legs and feet can't wear my shoes. I am mad as hell told everyone Dr. Pharmacy, and no one cared.

Metoprolol is a generic medication, and as such, it is produced by several different manufacturers, and each one of their tablets may look different, and will have different markings on it, in order to differentiate them. But, if you received it from a licensed pharmacy then you can rest assured that you have received the correct medication, even if it looks different.

The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, increased urination, and hypotension.

Ref: Metoprolol Information

Brenda, did you make sure you doctor is aware of the symptoms that you experienced? What are your usual blood pressure levels?

I am not sure which recall you referred to in your post. However, if a medication you received was recalled, then your pharmacy should contact you to let you know, and they should replace any remaining medication with an alternative from a different manufacturer.

I have had similar problems with taking pain killers in these high strengths. The worse on your teet is methadone so don't let them talk you into that, I had perfect teeth until I took methadone for a few years and got to a strength that would finally help with the pain but it is probably the worse on your teeth. I have been looking on the web ever since it can out since I am a telecom engineer I was there when the internet came out and used to use it to test computers when it was a government site and there was nothing on it exc ept a site to site place where you could test you tmt and rec on computers and I have never found anyone in the pharmacy field or the doctors that will admit to the fact that they have any effect and there has never been any test run for new medications because being money driven the only way it would profit the big companys would be a new drug and then they would have to admit then that the drugs they are producing now are causing these problems and also the fact that half or more of the present population now are on methadone as a substitute for heroin addiction because it doesn't get you high but will satisfy the normal addict by taking away the withdrawl symtoms of herion which would put an awful large group of people which would have a case against the drug mfg's of methadone which there are plenty and mostly in liquid form which is what is given to the addicts because they can't trust them to take them and not sell them and etc. so they have to drink their dose in fron of qualified nursing or qualified officials. Sort of a catch 22 where it would help allot of us to have some kind of pain killer which is why oxycotin was developed because of the liver damage caused by the large quantities of percocet and generic forms of oxycodone with tylenol or also called acetamenaphen in its generic form defenitely causes liver damage in such large quantites used consistantly which people in our category require. Now, knowing why they don't make a different drug because of admitting the liability that they would already be guilty of it puts them in the previously mentioned catch 22 syndrome so we become the loser in the complete situation. What we can do is open to imagination and gumtion to get something together and to get the fantastic number of patients like ourselves which would be a miracle in itself. Allt of people have admitted that metadon works for them and for me they work to detox yourself from the higher pain meds and only that because of the side effects of normal pain meds not to include the major effect it has on your dental health. Running out of room so have to finish here.
