Frequently asked questions about Metoprolol Tartrate

Q. What is the difference between Metoprolol Succinate and Metpol Tablet?
Metoprolol Succinate is an extended-release form of Metoprolol. This means it is released into your body slowly and only needs to be taken once a day. Metpol Tablet, on the other hand, is available as an immediate-release tablet. It doesn’t stay in your body as long as Metoprolol Succinate does. Hence, multiple doses in a day may be required.
Q. Is Metpol Tablet effective?
Metpol Tablet is effective if used in the dose and duration advised by your doctor. Do not stop taking it even if you see improvement in your condition. If you stop using Metpol Tablet too early, the symptoms may return or worsen.
Q. Which is better, Metpol Tablet or Metoprolol Succinate?
Metpol Tablet and Metoprolol Succinate are both effective depending on the condition being treated. Metoprolol Succinate is more effective for treating heart failure. Metoprolol Succinate may also be less likely to cause some side effects as compared to Metpol Tablet.
Q. What if I forget to take a dose of Metpol Tablet?
