Description:

1. Formulation
o Active Ingredient: Metoprolol 100 mg per tablet.
o Excipients: The tablet may contain various inactive ingredients (excipients) to aid in tablet formulation, stability, and delivery. These can include substances like lactose, cellulose, magnesium stearate, and other binders or fillers, depending on the manufacturer.

2. Indications
o Hypertension: Used to treat high blood pressure, helping to lower blood pressure and reduce the risk of complications associated with hypertension.
o Angina Pectoris: Prescribed to relieve chest pain associated with angina, improving exercise tolerance and reducing the frequency of angina attacks.
o Heart Failure: Used as part of a treatment regimen for chronic heart failure to improve symptoms and overall heart function.
o Post-Myocardial Infarction: Used to improve survival and reduce the risk of subsequent heart attacks in patients who have had a myocardial infarction (heart attack).

3. Age Groups
o Adults: Commonly prescribed for adult patients with the conditions mentioned above.
o Elderly: Can be used in elderly patients, but dosing and monitoring may need to be adjusted due to age-related changes in metabolism and the presence of other health conditions.
o Children: Not typically used in children unless specifically prescribed by a healthcare provider for certain conditions. Dosing in children is usually tailored to individual needs and requires careful monitoring.

4. Contraindications
o Allergy: Contraindicated in individuals with known hypersensitivity or allergy to metoprolol or any component of the tablet.
o Severe Bradycardia: Should not be used in patients with severe bradycardia (slow heart rate) or certain types of heart block unless a pacemaker is present.
o Asthma or Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD): Caution is required in patients with asthma or COPD, as metoprolol can potentially exacerbate respiratory conditions, though it is less likely to do so than non-selective beta-blockers.
o Severe Peripheral Artery Disease: Use with caution in patients with severe peripheral artery disease due to potential worsening of symptoms.
o Uncontrolled Heart Failure: Should be avoided in patients with acute decompensated heart failure or severe uncontrolled heart failure without careful medical supervision.

Note: Metoprolol dosage must be tailored to the individual based on their condition, response to treatment, and any other concurrent medications. Regular monitoring by a healthcare provider is necessary to ensure effective and safe use of the medication. For any adverse effects or concerns, consult with a healthcare provider for appropriate management and guidance.
