Dosages & strengths of Metoprolol (Lopressor®)

Metoprolol online prescriptions allow your provider to tailor the exact dose to control your blood pressure, heart rate, or chest pain. The strength and formulation depend on your diagnosis, current health, and treatment goals:

25 mg tablets – often the starting dose for high blood pressure or mild heart rate control; taken once or twice daily.
50 mg tablets – common maintenance dose for hypertension, angina, or arrhythmias; taken once or twice daily.
100 mg tablets – prescribed for more intensive blood pressure or heart rate management; dosing is adjusted gradually.
Metoprolol succinate (extended-release) – taken once daily for long-lasting control, often used in heart failure or chronic conditions.
Metoprolol tartrate (immediate-release) – taken once or twice daily, ideal for quick heart rate control in certain cases.

Side effects of Metoprolol (Lopressor®)

Most people tolerate Metoprolol well, but some may notice:

These side effects often improve within a week or two. If you experience fainting, severe shortness of breath, swelling, or sudden weight gain, stop Metoprolol and contact your provider immediately. Regular monitoring ensures safe and effective heart and blood pressure management.

Contraindications & precautions for Metoprolol (Lopressor®)

Before providing a refill of Metoprolol online, your licensed provider will check for:

Allergy to Metoprolol or other beta-blockers – avoid use if you’ve had a hypersensitivity reaction.
Severe bradycardia or heart block – Metoprolol slows heart rate and may worsen these conditions.
Cardiogenic shock or acute heart failure – not recommended during unstable cardiac events.
Severe peripheral arterial disease – may worsen circulation in legs or feet.
Asthma or chronic lung disease – beta-blockers can trigger breathing difficulty in sensitive individuals.
Untreated pheochromocytoma – Metoprolol should only be used after an alpha-blocker is tried.
Low blood pressure (hypotension) – may cause further drops in blood pressure.
Diabetes – can mask symptoms of low blood sugar; monitor closely if you use insulin or other anti-diabetic medications.
Pregnancy or breastfeeding – use only if benefits outweigh potential risks, as discussed with your provider.

Note: Always share your full medical history, recent blood pressure and pulse readings, and all current medications during your telehealth consult to ensure safe, effective Lopressor® therapy.

FAQs for Metoprolol (Lopressor®) online prescriptions

Can I really get a Metoprolol refill prescription online?

Yes. Through our secure telehealth platform, a licensed provider can review your health history, symptoms, and medications, then send your Metoprolol refill prescription directly to your preferred pharmacy, often the same day.

What conditions is Metoprolol used for?

Metoprolol helps treat high blood pressure, chest pain (angina), irregular heart rhythms, and certain types of heart failure. It can also reduce the risk of future heart attacks in people with heart disease.

What’s the difference between Metoprolol tartrate and Metoprolol succinate?

Metoprolol tartrate is an immediate-release form taken once or twice daily, often used for heart rate control.
Metoprolol succinate is extended-release, taken once daily for steady blood pressure or heart failure management. Your provider will choose the right version for your needs.

How soon does Metoprolol start working?

Metoprolol starts lowering blood pressure and slowing heart rate within 1–2 hours of your first dose. Full benefits for blood pressure control may take a few days to weeks.

Can I switch from another beta-blocker to Metoprolol online?

Yes, your telehealth provider can review your current medication, decide if Metoprolol is appropriate, and guide you through a safe switch, adjusting your dosage gradually.

What if I miss a dose of Metoprolol?

Take it as soon as you remember, unless it’s almost time for your next dose. Never double up to make up for a missed dose. Skipping doses suddenly can cause spikes in heart rate or blood pressure.

Can Metoprolol cause side effects?

Common side effects include tiredness, dizziness, slow heart rate, and cold hands or feet. Serious effects like fainting, shortness of breath, or swelling should be reported to a doctor immediately.

Is Metoprolol safe if I have asthma or diabetes?

Metoprolol can worsen breathing problems in asthma patients and may hide signs of low blood sugar in people with diabetes. Your provider will assess your risk and may suggest an alternative if needed.

Can I drink alcohol while taking Metoprolol?

It’s best to limit alcohol because it can increase dizziness, drowsiness, and blood pressure–lowering effects. Always check with your provider before mixing alcohol and medication.

How will I know if my dose is correct?

Your provider will guide you on checking your blood pressure and pulse regularly at home. If readings are consistently too low or you feel lightheaded, your dose may need adjusting through a follow-up telehealth visit.

When is the best time to take Metoprolol?

The best time to take Metoprolol tartrate depends on your dosage and symptoms. If you experience dizziness, it is best to take it at night. In the case of divided doses, you must space them throughout the day.

Can I stop taking Metoprolol on my own?

You cannot stop taking Metoprolol prescriptions on your own suddenly. Your doctor can advise you on how to gradually reduce your medicine to prevent side effects or worsening of your condition. You may be putting yourself in danger of an increased risk of having a heart attack if you stop taking the medicine abruptly.
