๐Metoprolol๐
Indications
Supraventricular arrhythmia, angina pectoris, hypertension, myocardial infarction; migraine prophylaxis; hyperthyroidism, heart failure.
Availability
TABLET 10, 25, 50 and 100 mg INJECTION100 mg/2 ml, 250 mg/2 ml, 500 mg/2 ml. CAPSULE 12.5, 25, 50 and 100 mg
Dose
Oral
Heart failure: Initiating dose 12.5 - 25 mg once a day, Maximum dose: 200 mg once a day; Hypertension: initially 100 mg daily, increase if required to 200 mg in two divided doses (max 400 mg daily). Angina: 50 mg daily, up to 300 mg daily in 2 to 3 divided doses if necessary.
Intravenous injection
Arrhythmia: up to 5 mg at a rate of 1 to 2 mg per min, repeated after 5 min if necessary (max dose 10 to 15 mg). Arrythmia developing during anaesthesia: 2 to 4 mg during induction.
Contraindications
Asthma (important: see Bronchospasm below), uncontrolled heart failure, Prinzmetal's angina, marked bradycardia, hypotension, sick sinus syndrome, second- or third- degree AV block, cardiogenic shock, metabolic acidosis, severe peripheral arterial disease; pheochromocytoma (apart from specific use with alpha-blockers).
Beta-blockers, including those considered to be cardioselective, should not be given to patients with a history of asthma or bronchospasm. However, in rare situations where there is no alternative a cardioselective beta-blocker is given to these patients with extreme caution and under specialist supervision.
Precautions
Avoid abrupt withdrawal especially in ischaemic heart disease, first-degree AV block, portal hypertension (risk of deterioration in liver function); diabetes; history of obstructive airways disease (introduce cautiously and monitor lung function); myasthenia gravis; symptoms of hypoglycaemia and thyrotoxicosis may be masked; history of hypersensitivity-may increase sensitivity to allergens and result in more serious hypersensitivity response; also may reduce response to adrenaline (epinephrine); reduce dose of oral propranolol in hepatic impairment; renal impairment; lactation; pregnancy
Adverse Effects
Gastro-intestinal disturbances; bradycardia, heart failure, hypotension, conduction disorders; peripheral vasoconstriction (including exacerbation of intermittent claudication and Raynaudโs phenomenon); bronchospasm; dyspnoea; headache; fatigue; sleep disturbances; paraesthesia; dizziness; vertigo; psychosis; sexual dysfunction; purpura; thrombocytopenia; visual disturbances; exacerbation of psoriasis; alopecia; rarely, rashes and dry eyes (reversible on withdrawal); on infusion venous irritation and thrombophlebitis; agranulocytosis; hyperglycemia; myocardial depression.
