Met XL 25 Tablet is a medicine used to treat high blood pressure, chest pain (angina pectoris), irregular heartbeats, migraine prevention, increased thyroid hormone levels, and heart failure. It contains metoprolol as its active ingredient, which works by relaxing blood vessels, lowering blood pressure, and slowing down the heart to conserve its energy, and reducing the oxygen requirement of the heart, helping it to reduce strain on the heart. This improves blood flow, relaxes blood vessels, and reduces strain on the heart, thereby lowering the risk of heart-related complications.
It is important to take Met XL 25 Tablet exactly as prescribed by your doctor, in the correct dose and for the recommended duration. Do not stop taking this medicine suddenly, especially if you have heart ailments or a tendency to low blood pressure, as this can worsen your condition. If your doctor advises stopping it, the dose will usually be reduced gradually. This medicine is not recommended for use in children under 18 years of age.
Some people may experience side effects such as nausea, tiredness, dizziness, or headache. These are usually mild and temporary. However, if these symptoms become severe or do not go away, you should contact your doctor. Rarely, more serious side effects can occur, so it's important to be aware of any unusual changes in your health and to consult a doctor immediately.

Also inform them of all other medicines, supplements, or herbal products you are taking, as well as any medical conditions you have, such as asthma, diabetes, or thyroid problems. This will help your doctor make sure the medicine is safe for you.
