Metoprolol Tartrate
Contraindications
Pregnancy Category C. There are no adequate and well?controlled studies in pregnant women. This drug should be used during pregnancy only if clearly needed. Metoprolol is excreted in breast milk in very small quantities. Caution should be exercised when Metoprolol is administered to a nursing woman.
Side Effects
Bronchospastic Diseases: Because of its relative beta 1 ?selectivity, however, Metoprolol may be used with caution in patients with bronchospastic disease who do not respond to, or cannot tolerate other antihypertensive treatment. Major Surgery: The necessity or desirability of withdrawing beta?blocking therapy prior to major surgery is controversial; the impaired ability of the heart to respond to reflex adrenergic stimuli may augment the risks of general anesthesia and surgical procedures. Diabetes and Hypoglycemia: Beta?blockers may mask tachycardia occurring with hypoglycemia, but other manifestations such as dizziness and sweating may not be significantly affected. Peripheral Vascular Disease: Beta?blockers can precipitate or aggravate symptoms of arterial insufficiency in patients with peripheral vascular disease. Calcium Channel Blockers: Because of significant inotropic and chronotropic effects in patients, caution should be exercised in patients treated with these agents concomitantly.
Pregnancy And Lactation
Hepatic impaired patient: Metoprolol should be used with caution in patients with impaired hepatic function. Pediatric Use: No clinically relevant differences in the adverse event profile were observed for pediatric patients aged 6 to 16 years as compared with adult patients. Safety and effectiveness of Metoprolol have not been established in patients <6 years of age. Geriatric Use: There were no notable differences in efficacy or the rate of adverse events between older and younger patients.
