Clinical Overview

Telmisartan and Metoprolol Succinate (Extended-Release) combines an ARB with a cardioselective beta-1 adrenergic blocker. Telmisartan reduces afterload and inhibits vascular remodeling, while extended-release metoprolol attenuates sympathetic nervous activity, reduces resting and exercise heart rates, lowers myocardial oxygen demand, and stabilizes cardiac rhythm. Indicated for hypertension associated with coronary artery disease, stable angina, post-myocardial infarction, or resting tachycardia.

Usage Guidelines

Take orally once daily in the morning with a glass of water, with or immediately after food. Swallow whole; do not crush or chew extended-release tablets. Never discontinue abruptly; taper gradually over 1-2 weeks.

*Note: Individual physiological responses vary. While many patients experience few or no side effects, notify your treating physician if adverse reactions persist or if hypersensitivity (angioedema, skin rash, dyspnea) occurs.

Precautions & Warnings

Boxed warning: Abrupt cessation can precipitate severe angina, ventricular arrhythmias, or myocardial infarction. Black box warning for fetal toxicity. Contraindicated in severe bradycardia, second- or third-degree AV block, and cardiogenic shock.
