Will Metoprolol Interfere With Anesthesia To Be Taken During Dental Procedure?
I am a 45 year old woman, prescribed Metoprolol to treat my high blood pressure. I have a broken tooth, and am concerned about my medication interacting with the dentist's anesthesia. What would the proper anesthesia be? Would novocaine have a bad interaction?

Hello!
Welcome on HCM!
Regarding your concern, I would explain that Metoprolol has no interactions with dentist's anesthesia. It does not interact with novocaine or other drugs like tetracaine or bupivacaine.
So, there is nothing to worry about.
Hope to have been helpful!
Wishing good health,
