The tablet containing Metoprolol 25 mg ER + Cilnidipine 10 mg is a prescription medication primarily used to treat hypertension (high blood pressure). This combination helps effectively lower blood pressure when a single medication is insufficient, thereby reducing the risk of future heart attacks and strokes.
Key Information
- Active Ingredients: Metoprolol succinate 25 mg (extended-release) and Cilnidipine 10 mg.
- Mechanism of Action:
- Cilnidipine is a calcium channel blocker (CCB) that works by relaxing and widening the blood vessels, allowing blood to flow more easily.
- Metoprolol is a beta-blocker that works specifically on the heart to slow the heart rate and reduce the force of contraction, making the heart more efficient at pumping blood.
- Administration: It is typically taken orally, usually once daily, with or without food, as directed by a healthcare professional. The extended-release (ER) tablet should be swallowed whole and not crushed, broken, or chewed.
- Storage: Store the medicine in a closed container at room temperature, away from heat, moisture, and direct light.
Common Side Effects
Possible side effects may include:
- Dizziness or lightheadedness (especially when standing up)
- Headache
- Fatigue or drowsiness
- Swelling in the ankles or feet (peripheral edema)
- Nausea or gastrointestinal upset
- Slow heart rate (bradycardia)
