Can Toprol Be Taken Empty Stomach?
I take topril for SVT. I usually take it with breakfast. I have a minor procedure coming up scheduled for 11am where I cannot have any food for 8 hours prior. I can have water 2 hours before test. Can I take topril on empty stomach. I worry if I wait and take it after , like 2 pm I may run the risk of a SVT event. I rarely have them now that I am on topril

Hi & Welcome.
Yes, it can be taken on an empty stomach.
Toprol (Metoprolol) is a beta-blocker taken once daily at the same time every day usually with food or just after a meal.
Since you have been advised not take food for some minor procedure, the medicine Toprol can be taken on an empty stomach.
Hope to have answered your query.
