Metoprolol Risks Are You Aware of These Hidden Dangers

Recent pharmacovigilance studies have identified new safety concerns linked to metoprolol, a commonly prescribed beta-blocker for high blood pressure and heart conditions. Analysis of the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) has detected unexpected serious adverse reactions, including orthostatic intolerance (dizziness or fainting when standing), trigemino-cardiac reflex (sudden drop in heart rate and blood pressure), decorticate posture (a neurological response indicating brain injury), and a strong association with suspected suicide.

Chapters:

00:12 FDA Adverse Event Reporting System Data
00:27 Serious Side Effects
00:39 Careful, Mental Health Monitoring
00:50 Other Medications for Interactions
01:01 Antidepressants (Fluoxetine and Paroxetine)
01:13 Continuous Drug Safety Monitoring

Additionally, certain drug interactions can increase the risk of these adverse effects. Calcium channel blockers (verapamil, diltiazem), alpha-blockers (prazosin, tamsulosin), CNS depressants (benzodiazepines, opioids), and SSRIs (fluoxetine, paroxetine) can exacerbate metoprolol side effects, potentially leading to bradycardia, hypotension, and worsened mental health outcomes.

These findings highlight the critical importance of post-marketing drug surveillance and the need for healthcare professionals to monitor patients closely. If you experience unusual symptoms while taking metoprolol, consult your healthcare provider immediately.

What is metoprolol used for

Metoprolol is a heart medication that works by blocking the effects of epinephrine on beta-1 receptors within the heart, this causes the heart to pump more slowly and with less force. Metoprolol is available as two different salts: You got: metoprolol tartrate brand name Lopressor and metoprolol succinate, brand name Toprol XL. They are both used to lower high blood pressure and reduce chest pain, otherwise known as angina.

How does metoprolol work

Both versions of metoprolol belong to a class of drugs you may already heard of: called beta-blockers. Like other beta blockers, metoprolol works by changing the way your body responds to some nerve impulses, especially in the heart. And when this happens, It slows down your heart rate and makes it easier for your heart to pump blood around your body and decreases blood pressure. When the blood pressure is lowered, the amount of blood and oxygen is increased to the heart and this resolves any chest pain and makes the flow of blood around your body run more smoothly.

How to take metoprolol

The best way to take metoprolol, is how your doctor has told you to take it. There are so many different doses and variations that can be made with metoprolol based on different conditions, so the you have been prescribed to take it, is going to be the best way for you to get the most benefits from it. Strengths for the immediate release form range from: 25 mg, 37.5, 50 mg, 75 and 100. And strengths for the extended release range from: 5 mg, 50, 100, and 200 mg. Always consult with your doctor before making any changes. Especially when it comes to stopping metoprolol abruptly.

Metoprolol side effects

Now its totally normal for in the beginning of starting metoprolol to have it feel a little rough. If youre experiencing headaches. make sure you rest and drink plenty of fluids. Do not drink too much alcohol as well and Ask your pharmacist to recommend a painkiller. Headaches usually go away after the first week of taking metoprolol. But if youre feeling tired, dizzy or weak. stop what you're doing, and sit or lie down until you feel better. Dont drive or use tools or machinery if you're feeling tired and again, avoid drinking too much alcohol as this can make you feel worse. Another side effect that may be surprising at first is cold hands and feet. So my tips for this is: put your hands or feet under warm running water, massage them, and wiggle your fingers and toes. You want to avoid smoking or have drinks with caffeine in it as these can make your blood vessels narrower and restrict your blood flow. Mittens and warm socks can help too. Now if youre feeling nauseous: stick to simple meals and avoid rich or spicy foods. It might also help to take your metoprolol after a meal. Some even find this medicine to cause stomach pain: try to rest and relax. It can help to eat and drink slowly and have smaller and more frequent meals. Putting a heat pad or covered hot water bottle on your stomach may also help. But If you're in a lot of pain, speak to your pharmacist or doctor.

***Correction:
Recently, it came to my attention that I made an error in pronouncing the name of the medication, metoprolol. For those who might not be familiar, metoprolol is a beta-blocker commonly prescribed for managing high blood pressure and heart conditions. The correct pronunciation is "meh-TOE-pro-lol." I want to extend a big thank you to our community for highlighting this, and I'm grateful for the opportunity to correct it.

Metoprolol is used to treat different conditions, including high blood pressure and heart problems such as heart failure, irregular heartbeats, and angina or chest pain.

I want to particularly talk about Asthma, taking a beta blocker may trigger your asthma symptoms or make them worse. However Not everybody with asthma is sensitive to these medicines and this is rare with metoprolol. Your doctor may decide to prescribe you a different medicine or increase the dose of your asthma preventer medication.

Medication interaction
Anti-inflammatories such as diclofenac (e.g.
Voltaren Rapid), ibuprofen (e.g. Nurofen), mefenamic acid
(e.g. Ponstan), naproxen (e.g. Naprogesic) which you can
buy without a script from a pharmacy.more in video

Things to be aware of:
Do not drive a car or operate machinery until you know how this medication
affects you.
• and no alcohol while you are on this medication as it can make you extra drowsy.
• Remember to spend time reading the medication leaflet when you first receive the
medication from your pharmacist. it’s not gonna take you a lot of time, may
10 minutes. If your pharmacist forgets to give it to you, remind them. I will also put
one through a link down in the description box for you.

Diabetes

If you have diabetes you need to take extra care to measure
your blood glucose levels regularly because Beta-blockers
can cause an increase in blood glucose levels, especially when you
first start taking them. This effect usually settles with
time.metoprolol can reduce the warning signs of a low blood
sugar level such as feeling of fast, irregular or strong heartbeats
(palpitations) or tremor.

Side Effects:
• Tiredness, weak and dizziness - if this happen, stop
what you are doing - rest, sit down or lie down until the
dizziness goes away. do not drink alcohol. do not drive,
operate machinates and do anything else that could be
dangerous.

• you might get light headedness as well especially you stand up too quickly, we call
that orthostatic hypotension. so be careful when getting up from a lying
down of sitting position to prevent any falls. get up slowly, if possible hold onto
something as you get up.

• Headache - Headache should only last for 1 week. if it
goes longer than that, or its severe, see your doctor.
things you could do within this week is have lots of rest,
drink plenty of water, avoid drinking alcohol and ask your
pharmacist to recommend a painkiller for you.
