Product Description :
Metoprolol is a selective β1 receptor blocker used in treatment of several diseases of the cardiovascular system, especially hypertension.

Indications :
1.Essential hypertension
2.Tachycardia
3.Coronary heart disease (prevention of angina attacks)
4.Secondary prevention after a myocardial infarction
5.Treatment of heart failure.
6.Migraine prophylaxis
7.Vasovagal syncope
8.Adjunct in treatment of hyperthyroidism
9.Long QT syndrome, especially for patients with asthma, as metoprolol's β1 selectivity tends to interfere less with asthma drugs which are often β2-adrenergic receptor-agonist drugs
Due to its selectivity in blocking the beta1 receptors in the heart, metoprolol is also prescribed for off-label use in performance anxiety, social anxiety disorder, and other anxiety disorders.
