Starpress R XL 50 Tablet is composed of two active ingredients that work together to reduce blood pressure:

Metoprolol Succinate (50 mg): This component acts as a beta-blocker. It works by blocking the action of certain natural chemicals in your body, like adrenaline, on the heart and blood vessels. This effect reduces heart rate, blood pressure, and strain on the heart.
Ramipril (5 mg): This ingredient is an angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor. It works by preventing the formation of chemicals that could increase blood pressure. In particular, it inhibits the production of a substance called angiotensin II, which can cause blood vessels to narrow and release a hormone that increases salt and water retention in your body.
