I am taking metoprolol ER 100mg qd and when I got a refill it's now metoprol TAR 100mg qd.
In addition I also take Azor 10/40 mg 1 tab qd.
Is this alright ? , nothing was said of a change in the Rx , please advise and thank you!
There has been no change to your medication, it is exactly the same, the actual drug name is Metoprolol Tartrate, one prescription bottle simply listed an abbreviated name and the new one lists the full name.
This medication is a generic for Toprol or Toprol XL, it is used to various diseases of the cardiovascular system, most commonly high blood pressure.
Common side effects may include: nausea, coldness of the extremeties, headache and dizziness.

Are there any other questions?
I was prescribed Metoprolol 25 mg When I went for refill, they gave me Metoprol TAR 25 mg. The inscription on the 1st one says 18 and the second 79. The First one says Mylan at the bottom of the bottle and Metoprol TAR says Ranbaxy PH. I have to take this tablet tonight but do not want to do so without advice. Thank you
Metoprolol 25mg er is a extended release and the metoprolol tart is a rapid release.
