Lopressor is prescribed for managing hypertension and reducing blood pressure levels. Lowering blood pressure decreases the risk of both fatal and non-fatal cardiovascular events, particularly stroke and heart attacks. These advantages have been observed in controlled trials involving various classes of antihypertensive medications, including metoprolol.

What does it do?

Lopressor (Metoprolol Tartrate) inhibits beta receptors in the heart, which typically interact with hormones known as catecholamines. When catecholamines attach to these receptors, they cause the heart to beat more forcefully and rapidly. By blocking these receptors, metoprolol allows the heart to beat at a slower pace. This action can enhance heart function, lower blood pressure, and potentially decrease the risk of heart attacks and strokes.

How should I take it?
