- 1.1 Hypertension Metoprolol succinate extended-release tablets are indicated for the treatment of hypertension, to lower blood pressure. Lowering blood pressure lowers the risk of fatal and non-fatal cardiovascular events, primarily strokes and myocardial infarctions. These benefits have been seen in controlled trials of antihypertensive drugs from a wide variety of pharmacologic classes including metoprolol. Control of high blood pressure should be part of comprehensive cardiovascular risk management, including, as appropriate, lipid control, diabetes management, antithrombotic therapy, smoking cessation, exercise, and limited sodium intake. Many patients will require more than 1 drug to achieve blood pressure goals.

BOXED WARNING SECTION
WARNING: ISCHEMIC HEART DISEASE: Following abrupt cessation of therapy
with
certain beta-blocking agents, exacerbations of angina pectoris and, in
some cases, myocardial
infarction have occurred. When discontinuing chronically administered
metoprolol succinate
extended-release, particularly in patients with ischemic heart
disease, the dosage should be
gradually reduced over a period of 1 to 2 weeks and the patient should
be carefully monitored.
If angina markedly worsens or acute coronary insufficiency develops,
metoprolol succinate
extended-release administration should be reinstated promptly, at
least temporarily, and other
measures appropriate for the management of unstable angina should be
taken. Warn patients
against interruption or discontinuation of therapy without the
physician’s advice. Because
coronary artery disease is common and may be unrecognized, it may be
prudent not to
discontinue metoprolol succinate extended-release therapy abruptly
even in patients treated
only for hypertension (5.1).
