metoprolol side effect
I have been on 25mg of metoprolol xl with no problems for over 2 years now. About 3 weeks ago the pharmacy changed my usual metoprolol manufacturer to a different manufacturer.

Since then I haven't been feeling so good. Sometimes my heart will feel like its racing and I feel really tired and run down. I sometimes check my blood pressure at home and it usually runs 105/60 sometimes a little higher and sometimes a little lower.

I take my medication in the late evening and last night I decided not to take my metoprolol and today for the first time in a long time I felt really good! No racing heartbeat and I actually had energy.

I haven't seen my regular doctor yet, but I was thinking that maybe this different brand could be making me feel like this. But is it even possible?

For those who are taking metoprolol, side effects may occur, including nausea, tiredness, shortness of breath, or slow heart rate. Other less common side effects that are reported in less than 1 percent of patients include increased liver enzymes, weight gain, and dry eyes. Metoprolol side effects are generally considered minor and do not require medical attention, but if you experience serious problems such as irregular heartbeat or chest pain, be sure to notify your healthcare provider immediately.
