Metoprolol is also a beta blocker, but a cardiac selective one,which means less systemic side-effects. The symptoms you complain about might be caused by Metoprolol but should settle with time. Please be advised that one should not stop the use abruptly, so speak to your doctor before trying to discontinue usage.
