Amlodipine (5 mg) and Metoprolol Succinate (25 mg) are the two active ingredients in MET XL AM 25/5 TABLET 20.

• Amlodipine (5 mg): This ingredient belongs to a group of medicines known as calcium channel blockers. It works by stopping calcium from entering specific muscles and arteries in your body. As a result, your blood vessels relax and widen, which helps reduce your blood pressure.
• Metoprolol succinate (25 mg): A beta-blocker, metoprolol primarily blocks specific signals in the heart and blood vessels. This action slows down your heart rate and helps lower blood pressure.

These two ingredients work together to manage hypertension and reduce symptoms of angina. They decrease the demand for oxygen in the heart, which helps control chest pain.
