What Is The Difference Between Metropolol 25 mg Er And Metropolol 25 mgTart? ## The ER stands for extended release, that means that formulation of Metoprolol is slowly released in your body, over time, rather than all at once, like the standard medication that the other one is. Sometimes, when a patient is taking the regular release to treat high blood pressure or a cardiac condition, it helps, but doesn't keep it under control for a very long period of time and in those cases, it may be necessary for a doctor to switch someone to the time released formulation, to keep the medication in their body longer. Metoprolol is a beta blocker and may cause side effects, such as: nausea, drowsiness, headache and stomach pain. Learn more: Are there any other questions or comments?

My mother began taking Coumadin 2 wks ago. Her INR was 1.9 today, so it's progressing well toward a therapeutic level. Her doctor also increased the dosage of Metropolol when he added Coumadin. She reports that she's been feeling tired and "out of sorts" the past 2 days. She even took a nap today, which is unheard of! Does Coumadin cause generalized weakess and fatigue initially? ## Hello, Dee! How is your mom doing? To be honest, I'm more inclined to think that her symptoms are do to the higher dose of Metoprolol, it's very well known to cause such side effects. Others, as listed by the FDA, may possibly include nausea, dizziness, headache and increased urination. Coumadin's typical side effects include nausea, headache, dizziness, increased risk of bleeding...

i ran out of metropolol on board ship and only amplodipine is available onboard. can i use it as a substitute even for just a month before i finish my contract on board? ## Hello, Bhong! How are you? Yes, switching from one to the other is usually okay, you just can't stop taking such a medication cold turkey. The FDA lists the typical side effects of this medication as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, increased urination and hypotension. The doctor should be able to help you discover an equivalent dose.

After many years on Lisinopril Hydrochlorothiazide my doctor switched me to a combination of 50 mg of Metropolol with 10 mg Amlodipine. I was stage II hypertensive even on 40/25 of the Lisinopril with readings averaging 184/94. The new combination has lowered the BP to about 134/82 on average, but I constantly have this weird pressure in my head like it's going to explode. Not exactly a headache, but a weird pressure. And I just don't feel well. I've been on this for 2 weeks. Has anyone else ever experienced this? It doesn't really fit the listed side effects. It rather scares me. I asked the doc and she was stumped, told me to try for another week or so. ## Is there any way you can describe it more specifically? I'm sorry, but that is rather vague. I understand if y...

I was put on lisinopril 6 months ago by my pcp. I have had different side effects that come and go during the entire time (dizziness, lightheaded, nausea, flushing, hot hands and feet, then tingling). About two weeks ago I had a lot of flushing, but my blood pressure was fine. In fact twice it dropped down too low, 80/53 then went right back up. One day my heart starts racing and fluttering. I think it's a panic attack, ignoring it, and long story short was admitted to the hospital with a new diagnosis of Afib with RVR. They finally helped convert me back to a sinus rhythm overnight. I'm now put on metoprolol, eliquis and am to continue taking my 10mg of lisinopril... During the next two weeks I see a cardiologist and tell him that I'm constantly anxious, always feel like I...

I'm on a few prescription drugs and i thought it was the Metropolol. I have been on the metoprolol for 2.5 years and never noticed anything. I've been on the Cymbalta for about 6 months. A low dose of 20 mg. My hair has aways been very thick. I notice some thinning around the forehead. ## Hello, Mike! How are you? Sorry about the hair loss. It it most likely either due to age, or the Metoprolol. If you read deeply into the detailed side effects of it, hair loss is in there and can occur in both men and women that take it.
