Description
Product Introduction
Met XL 50 Tablet is a member of the beta-blocker medication class. It is primarily used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension), angina (chest pain related to the heart), and irregular heart rhythms (arrhythmia). Additionally, it plays a role in preventing migraines, future heart attacks, and strokes.
Met XL 50 Tablet can be prescribed alone or in conjunction with other medications. The dosage and frequency will depend on your specific condition and its severity. It can be taken on an empty stomach or with food; however, it’s essential to take it regularly at the same time each day to achieve optimal benefits. Full effects may take several weeks to manifest, and long-term use is often necessary, even if you feel well. Stopping the medication abruptly may lead to worsening of your condition, as many individuals with high blood pressure do not experience symptoms.
