Topme 50 Tablet 10 contains metoprolol tartrate (50 mg), which works on the body as follows:

• Blocks beta-1 receptors: Metoprolol selectively blocks beta-1 adrenergic receptors found primarily in cardiac tissue, preventing the binding of chemicals like adrenaline and noradrenaline that normally increase heart rate and force of contraction.

• Reduces cardiac output: By decreasing both heart rate and contractility (the force with which your heart pumps), metoprolol lowers the amount of blood pumped by your heart, which helps reduce blood pressure.

• Decreases sympathetic nervous system activity: It reduces signals from your brain's vasomotor centres (areas that control blood vessel diameter) to your blood vessels, helping them relax and widen.

• Improves oxygen supply-demand balance: In patients with angina, it reduces the heart's workload and oxygen consumption, helping relieve chest pain by creating a better balance between oxygen supply and demand.

• Store Topme 50 Tablet 10 in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

• Keep at room temperature below 30°C.

• Protect from moisture and humidity; avoid bathroom medicine cabinets.

• Keep out of reach of children and pets.

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

• Maintain in original packaging until ready for use.

• Reduce your salt intake in the diet, as excess sodium can worsen high blood pressure (hypertension), making your medication less effective and placing extra strain on your heart.

• Engage in regular, moderate exercise like brisk walking for 30 minutes most days, as this helps lower blood pressure naturally and improves how well your heart works.
