Metol 25 Tablet 10 contains metoprolol tartrate (25 mg), which works on the body as follows:

• Beta-1 receptor blockade: Metoprolol selectively blocks beta-1 receptors in the heart, preventing stress hormones like adrenaline from binding to these receptors.

• Heart rate reduction: By blocking these receptors, the medicine slows down your heart rate and reduces the force of heart contractions, decreasing the workload on your heart.

• Blood pressure lowering: It reduces the constriction of blood vessels caused by adrenaline, allowing for improved blood flow and lower blood pressure.

• Renin suppression: The medicine suppresses the release of renin from your kidneys, which helps lower blood pressure over the long term.

• Electrical stabilisation: It stabilises the electrical activity of heart muscle cells, helping to maintain a regular heart rhythm.

• Store Metol 25 Tablet 10 at room temperature below 30°C.

• Keep away from direct heat, light and moisture.

• Store out of reach of children.

• Check the expiry date and do not use after this date.

• Reduce salt intake: Lowering the amount of salt in your diet helps manage high blood pressure (hypertension), which complements how Metol 25 Tablet 10 works to control your blood pressure.

• Regular moderate exercise: Activities like brisk walking for 30 minutes most days can strengthen your heart and improve circulation, helping to manage both high blood pressure and angina symptoms.
