Metoprolol Succ Er 50mg (Page 2)
(Newest replies first)

This is a white large oval tablet with a slpit on one side down the middle and 369 on the other side. The Mfr. is ETHEX CORP. I'm taking Toprol XL 50 mgs. for my heart. I have Bicuspid Aortic Valve Disease and arrythmias. I got my prescription filled today. I have never been given this type of tablet before and I'm afraid to take it. My pharmacist is closed now and I take this medicine every night. Please tell me what you may think that it is. Do you think that it's a generic for Toprol? I think that once I got a generic for it and it didn't look like this. Please email me back and let me know. Thank You so much.

I too have been prescribed this same pill in place of Toprol XL 50mg.

This is a 'horse pill' by comparison being at least 3 times the volume! My last prescription was for the same item but these were the same size and shape as the original Toprol XL. BTW - I have high blood pressure and take these along with Accupril 20mg. I have not noticed any specific difference to the Toprol XL although I am always dubious as to whether side effects are stronger. My experience then is that there is no noticable difference for me but if you are concerned your course of action might be to insist that the pharmacy gives the Toprol XL - but the additional cost may well be yours to bear or just try them and see how you get on. Keep monitoring your conditions and notify the Doctor if you notice any changes.
