my cardiologist neglected to specify what type of metropolol 50 on my prescription and so the pharmacist gave me metropolol succinate 50. when i returned weeks later for my refill i discovered that he now had changed the pills to metropolol tartarate 50. Is this going to be a problem for me or does it make no difference? ## No, that just designates the specific chemical salt that the drug is derived from, but it actually has not effect on the efficacy of the medication. Both Succinate and Tartrate will work the same and are pretty much interchangeable. Learn more Metoprolol details here. There are rare cases where someone may be sensitive to one or the other and it may not work as well, so you might want to make sure to keep an eye on you blood pressure and heart rate for a few days to ...

Why do doctors online and offline pretend that Metropolol does NOT cause hair loss, when there are patients online and right in front of offline doctors complaining that this beta blocker is making them lose their hair!? Instead of being honest, they blame the patient's genetics or make out like it's some other cause--stress, maybe, or diet, blah-blah. Metoprolol causes the hair to fall out and it doesn't take a long time on that drug, either. Just a couple months, and some of us are near bald. Time for honesty about this, and also WHY AREN'T THEY DEVELOPING A HEART MED THAT DOES NOT CAUSE HAIR LOSS???? ## How long does it take for the Metoprolol to leave the body after you stop taking it? and how long does it take to get your hair back? ## Well that sucks. I have been o...

Believe this is Mylan Metropolol succinate ER 25 mg. Was this part of the recalled Mylan Metropolol succinate ER that was recalled? ## Hello, Michelle! How are you? Yes, this is listed in the databases as containing 25mgs of Metoprolol in an extended release formulation. According to the FDA, this medication is a beta blocker that's most commonly used to treat high blood pressure and certain cardiac conditions. Possible side effects may include nausea, dizziness, headache, hypotension, stomach pain and increased urination. As to whether or not it was part of a recall, there's no way to be sure, without knowing how old the tablet is, or what lot it came from. Do you still have the pharmacy bottle? If so, that should enable your pharmacy to check for you. Are there any other quest...
