Can Metoprolol Be Taken When Diagnosed With Low Heart Rate?
I have just been prescribed Metoprolol er 25mg. My HR dips into the 40 s is irregular and my blood pressure is sometimes 100/60. I am nervous about taking this medication due to my HR being low and worried about my blood pressure going to low. What should I do?

metoprolol has adverse effect of low pulse rate ..you should request you to change it to other drig as amlodipine or telmisartan ..but if the metoprolol is safe drig according to your other problems and you are not feeling weakness or lightheadedness then leave it as such ..also get ECG done
