Metoprol Tar Tab

I take Metoprol Tar Tab 25mg 2x daily. is Metoprol er 25mg okay for me to take until my doctor refills mine? ## The ER stands for extended release, which means that the medication is slowly released, rather than being released all at once, so it may not work as well for you as the one you were taking. Learn more Metoprolol details here. Have you tried checking with your pharmacist or doctor? They are the same medication, but as I said, the time released may not give the same control, since it's released more slowly and there is a chance that it could cause you some problems. Are you taking it for high blood pressure?

is side effect itching and rashes ## No, those aren't normal side effects. Have you consulted your doctor? Metoprolol is a beta blocker, so what you may be experiencing are some circulatory issues that it may be causing. Thus, it may not be the right medication for you and you should discuss it with your doctor. ## Is Metaprol Tar 100mg by Ranbaxy the same as Metoprolol Tar 100mg by Teva?

I have been taking this drug every morning for several years now and my blood pressure is under control. Is it possible it is causing me to be quite lethargic 3 to 4 hours later or do I mark it up to my 76 years. Thanks ## It is very hard to say what might be causing it, in this case. Yes, it could be the medication itself, it could be age related, it could be your blood pressure going to low or several other health problems. Have you consulted your doctor about it? The highest possibility is probably age related, because you are going to be more sensitive to medications like this, so it may be making it drop a little too low. Doctors usually have to watch for this and make sure that they adjust your medication accordingly. Learn more:

what is the difference in the pink pils with c 74 on them and the white pills I have always been given? ## I can't really say anything with certainty, without knowing the markings on the white tablets. However, it is most likely that your pharmacy has just provided you with the same medication, but the tablets look different and have different markings, because they have been manufactured by a different company. Metoprolol is a generic medications, so it made by several different companies and it is normal for your pharmacy to change which one they carry, depending on who was offering the cheapest price at the time they needed to restock their supply. Did you try asking as the pharmacy?

Is the best time to take this medicine in the morning or night? ## Has your doctor made any specific recommendation? Metoprolol is a beta blocker, used to treat high blood pressure and cardiac conditions and, in most cases, this type of medication is taken in the morning, because most people are far more active during the day, so that is the time their blood pressure can be elevated.

What does Take 1 Tablet by Mouth Three Times A Day mean? Should I take it every 8 hours? ## Hello, Jackie! How are you? I'm sorry about the confusion, but I'm happy to clear it up for you.

Though, you should double check with your doctor to be sure. This medication is classified by the FDA as being a beta blocker that is most commonly used to treat high blood pressure and certain cardiac conditions. Typical side effects may possibly include nausea, dizziness, headache, stomach pain, increased urination and hypotension. Is there anything else I can help with?

My previously "no problem, small-dose aspirin", A-fib has become a problem; increasing, intensifying episodes of what my Dr. says is Paroxysmal A-fib, with weakness, fainting, sweating, trouble breathing. He prescribed this medication, taken one-half tab twice a day. I used to have low blood pressure but it's been normal, sometimes high, lately. I also have D.I.P., Fibromyalgia, take Tramadol & Klonapin. ## It is normal for your blood pressure to go up, when something is causing your heart to work harder than usual, so the changes you've experienced aren't surprising, though they do need to be carefully controlled. The FDA lists the typical side effects of this medication as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, increased urination, hair loss, and hypot...

United Healthcare is raising the copay on this ptescription and recommending Metoprolol tartrate, . arvedilol or atenolol. Titled subject is $45 in 2012 vice $3. for alternatives. Are the alternatives safe, same side-effect, and would my doctor have to change the prescription with my supplier? ## Yes, they all pretty much have the possibility of causing the same side effects. However, the Carvedilol is known to cause them far less often than the other options you mentioned. And yes, your doctor would have to give you a new prescription, because a pharmacy can't just change it, without their approval. Here are more details on these medications: Are there any other questions or comments?
