CompositionMetapol 50 Am Tablet 10 is used to control high blood pressure (hypertension) and to prevent the chest pain of angina in adults. By relaxing the blood vessels and slowing the heart rate, it reduces the strain on the heart and lowers the risk of heart attack and stroke.
It combines amlodipine, a calcium channel blocker that relaxes the blood vessels, and metoprolol succinate, a selective beta-blocker that slows the heart rate. Do not stop it suddenly, as this can cause a sharp rise in heart rate or blood pressure.
Reducing salt in your diet, staying active within your doctor's advice, keeping to a healthy weight and quitting smoking support better blood pressure control alongside this medicine.
Tell your doctor about any asthma, a very slow heart rate or diabetes before starting, and about other medicines you take. Mild ankle swelling is common with amlodipine; report it if troublesome, along with marked breathlessness or dizziness.
