Toprol XL Information

Toprol XL and Metoprolol Succinate at CanadaPharmacyOnline.com

Toprol XL (metoprolol succinate extended-release) is a brand marketed (by Melinta Therapeutics) in the US. Betaloc CR is another brand of the same medication, metoprolol succinate extended-release, which is manufactured by AstraZeneca and is widely available in many countries worldwide, including New Zealand and Australia.

Generic metoprolol succinate is sourced from manufacturers that meet applicable regulatory standards. The specific manufacturer of your dispensed medication may vary.

Important Information about Generic Metoprolol Succinate:

Generic metoprolol succinate contains the same active ingredient as the brand-name Toprol XL. It is required to meet the same safety, effectiveness, and quality standards as the brand-name product. This means it is designed to work in the same way as Toprol XL. Studies have demonstrated bioequivalence between generic and brand-name metoprolol succinate, meaning they have comparable absorption rates and overall effects. However, individual responses to any medication can vary. If you have any questions about using generic metoprolol succinate, talk to your doctor or pharmacist.

For more information about generic drug approval and bioequivalence, you can visit the FDA website: https://www.fda.gov/drugs/buying-using-medicine-safely/generic-drugs

Dosage:

Brand Toprol XL is available as 50 mg, 100 mg, and 200 mg oral extended-release tablets.

Generic metoprolol succinate is also available in different strengths and forms:
• Capsules: 12.5 mg, 25 mg, 50 mg, and 100 mg oral extended-release capsules
• Tablets: 12.5 mg, 25 mg, 50 mg, and 75 mg oral extended-release tablets

Your doctor will determine the appropriate dosage based on the individual needs and medical conditions.

Usage:

Toprol XL (metoprolol succinate) is a prescription medication used to treat hypertension (high blood pressure) and angina (chest pain). The drug is also used to lower the risk of heart attack in people who have recently had a heart attack and to reduce the risk of hospitalization for heart failure and death in people with heart failure.

Mechanism of Action:
Toprol XL (metoprolol succinate) is a selective beta-1 blocker that slows down the heart rate. This makes it easier for your heart to pump blood and lowers blood pressure. It also helps your heartbeat more regularly, reducing the need for blood and oxygen.

Use Toprol XL exactly as your doctor prescribes, following the instructions in the Product Monograph in Canada. Consult your doctor for personalized guidance and safe use.

The information below summarizes some, but not all, potential side effects, risks, and interactions. Before using Toprol XL, it is essential to discuss all potential side effects, risks, and interactions with your doctor or pharmacist.

Side Effects:

The information below is a partial list of side effects; individual reactions can vary. Before starting Toprol XL, it is crucial to discuss potential side effects and risks with your doctor or pharmacist.

Common side effects – The following are examples of some common side effects of Toprol XL; however, other side effects may occur. Contact your doctor promptly if any side effects persist, worsen, or concern you, or if you experience any other concerning symptoms.
• Depression
• Dizziness
• Insomnia
• Rash
• Slow heart rate
• Tiredness

Serious or rare side effects – Stop using Toprol XL and seek immediate medical attention right away if you experience any of the following:
• Allergic reactions, including angioedema, hives, and trouble breathing
• Lightheaded feeling, like you may pass out
• New or worsening chest pain
• Rapid weight gain
• Shortness of breath, even with mild exertion

Contraindications:

This is not an exhaustive list of contraindications. It is crucial to discuss all your medical conditions, past and present, and all medications you are using with your doctor or pharmacist before starting Toprol XL.

Toprol XL should not be used if:
• You are allergic to metoprolol succinate or any of the inactive ingredients in Toprol XL
• You have a history of slow heartbeats that may have caused fainting
• You have severe circulation problems
• You have a second or third-degree heart block
• You have severe heart failure
• You have sick sinus syndrome without a pacemaker

Tell your doctor about all of your medical conditions, past and present, before starting Toprol XL. This is crucial because certain conditions can affect whether Toprol XL is right for you. While Toprol XL treats some forms of heart failure, severe heart failure is a contraindication. These conditions may include, but are not limited to:
• Breathing disorders like asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and sleep apnea
• Congestive heart failure
• Diabetes
• Kidney problems
• Liver disease
• Peripheral vascular disease (pain in your legs when walking)
• Pheochromocytoma (adrenal gland tumor)
• Raynaud's syndrome (problems with circulation)
• Thyroid disorder

Diabetes:
Toprol XL can mask some of the symptoms of low blood sugar, such as rapid heart rate. Monitor your blood sugar levels if you have diabetes.

Dizziness:
Toprol XL can cause dizziness and lightheadedness, especially when you first start taking it. Do not get up too quickly from a sitting or lying position. Instead, get up slowly to reduce your risk of falls.

Stopping Suddenly:
Do not stop taking Toprol XL suddenly. Stopping this drug suddenly can make your condition worse, especially if you have pre-existing heart conditions. If you need to stop using this medication, your doctor will let you know how to reduce your dose over 7 to 14 days slowly.

Worsening Condition:
If you have heart failure, you may notice a temporary worsening of your condition when you first start taking Toprol XL. Inform your doctor immediately if this occurs.

Drug Interactions:

Before using Toprol XL, it is essential to discuss all potential risks and interactions with your doctor or pharmacist. For complete information about potential drug interactions, please consult the official Toprol XL website at https://www.toprol-xl.com/ and discuss any concerns with your healthcare provider. Provide your doctor with a complete list of all your medications, including prescriptions, over-the-counter (OTC) drugs, vitamins, and herbal supplements. Toprol XL can interact with other medicines, but is not limited to verapamil, diltiazem, clonidine, epinephrine, isocarboxazid, fluoxetine, and ergotamine.

Pregnancy and Breastfeeding:

If you are pregnant or become pregnant, tell your doctor before using Toprol XL. Metoprolol succinate may affect an unborn baby, primarily if used in the later stages of pregnancy. The drug can cause a slow heart rate, low blood sugar, or growth restriction in a baby. It is essential to discuss the risks and benefits of using Toprol XL with your doctor before starting treatment. If you are breastfeeding or plan to breastfeed, inform your doctor. Metoprolol succinate is excreted in human breast milk. It can cause unwanted side effects, such as low blood sugar or slow heartbeats, in a nursing infant. Discuss the risks and benefits of using Toprol XL with your doctor before using it.
