Metoprolol Er Tab Suc 50 Mg

I have been on Metoprolol ER TAB SUC 50 mg (75 mg in morning and 75 mg in evening) for a long time. These were round white pills with"M50" on one side and a score line on the other side. I understand the "ER" stands for Extended Release. When my prescription ran out, I contacted the pharmacy for a refill. Instead of sending me the same medication, they sent me a 3-month supply of Metoprolol TAB TAR 50 mg. These are round pink pills, a little smaller than the white pills. On one side they have a score line with "93" above the score line and "733" below the score line. The other side is plain, with no markings at all. Are these smaller pink TAB TAR pills the same as the ER TAB SUC pills? And are the TAB TAR pills Extended Release? I wanted to stay on the Extended Release so the level of medication would remain about the same at all times. The original medication was prescribed for me after I experienced several episodes of SVTs.

Hi, Sue! How are you?

No, the new tablet with the 93 733 marking is not a time released formulation, so it seems they sent you the wrong one.

You'll need to contact the pharmacy to inform them of the error.

Learn more Metoprolol details here.

If you're running out of the extended release tablets, then you may want to contact your doctor to get a prescription for a small amount of them in the meantime that you can pick up, until the other pharmacy corrects their error.

Is there anything else I can help with?
