Description:
Metocard XL 50 Tablet is a beta-blocker used to manage high blood pressure (hypertension), angina (chest pain due to heart-related issues), and irregular heart rhythms (arrhythmias). It also plays a preventive role against migraines, heart attacks, and strokes. This medicine may be prescribed alone or in combination with other medications depending on the severity of your condition. It can be taken with or without food but should be consumed at the same time each day to maintain consistent levels in the body. While it may take several weeks to see the full effects, it’s crucial to continue taking the medicine even if you feel well, as high blood pressure often presents no symptoms and stopping it suddenly may worsen your condition.
Common side effects include tiredness, headache, dizziness, nausea, diarrhea, depression, rash, and a slow heart rate. In some cases, it may also cause low blood pressure or shortness of breath. To minimize side effects, doctors usually start with a low dose and gradually increase it. Inform your doctor if any side effects persist or cause discomfort. Before starting Metocard XL 50, tell your doctor if you have liver issues, very slow heart rate, severe circulation problems, heart failure, or low blood pressure. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult their doctor before use. Regular monitoring of blood pressure is important to ensure the medicine’s effectiveness. Avoid alcohol while on this medication, as it can increase the risk of certain side effects.
