METOPROLOL TARTRATE  (METOPROLOL TARTRATE):  Metoprolol is used with or without other medications to treat high blood pressure (hypertension). Lowering high blood pressure helps prevent strokes, heart attacks, and kidney problems. This medication is also used to treat chest pain (angina) and to improve survival after a heart attack. Metoprolol belongs to a class of drugs known as beta blockers. It works by blocking the action of certain natural chemicals in your body, such as epinephrine, on the heart and blood vessels. This effect lowers the heart rate, blood pressure, and strain on the heart.   FDA Approval Date: 1994-03-25 (Sources: U.S. Centers for Medicare Services, FDA)

 5  AFIB with controlled hypertension No bad side effects. Actually produces a reassuring feeling due to heart rate steadiness and control. My resting heartbeat is around 55-60 bpm. I've been doing minimum 30 (and sometimes 60-180) min cardio daily since my AFIB episode 3 months ago. Feeling great and not anticipating any relapse. Diagnosed with lone AFIB; except for minor atrial regurgitation, heart health is good. M 52 3 months

 5  Post-ablation A-Fib. I have vivid dreams, but they're great! I love metoprolol tartrate! The post-ablation A-Fib has vanished. Any arrhythmias I have experienced, were from hyperglycemia. That is under control. I feel so sorry for the people who have experienced any side effects. F 62 8 years

 5  Hypertension Dizziness and fatigue for the first several weeks, but once my body became fully adjusted (about a month as I recall, but it might have taken a bit longer), the side effects finally faded away and have not returned. Now as a long-term user, I am very pleased with the results. I take 100 mg twice per day. My blood pressure has been rock steady at 115 over 70 for over 7 years, despite remaining overweight and not getting as much exercise as I should. Although I have not gained weight, I find it impossible to lose any, even when I exercise frequently and am highly disciplined about calorie counting. This might be due to the Metoprolol.

 5  Atrial fibrillation At the very first, I experienced shortness of breath when I walked a short distance, such as to the office from the parking lot, but then the doctor added Digoxin and the two work perfectly together, no shortness of breath or any other side effect that I know of. I feel pretty lucky about this, even though I don't like the idea of taking powerful prescription medication, as I don't know what else it is doing to me or how it might be hurting me. But without it, my heart rate would be 128, 135 somewhere thereabouts, whereas with Metoprolol, it is kept down to a reasonable 70 or 80. This does not control my arrhythmia (it's not expected to), only keeps the heart rate normal. M 61 4 months
