About Toprol XL 

Toprol XL belongs to a drug class known as beta-blockers. It affects the body's response to nerve impulses, especially in the heart. As a result, Toprol XL decreases the heart's need for blood and oxygen, so the heart doesn't have to work as hard.

Toprol XL treats high blood pressure, chest pain (angina pectoris), and heart failure. Toprol XL is available only by prescription. It is available in a generic formulation under different brand names, including metoprolol succinate.

Toprol XL is typically prescribed in the form of extended-release tablets. It’s always important to follow the specific instructions on your prescription, as they can vary based on the formulation and dosage you are prescribed.

If you're prescribed Toprol XL, be sure to complete the entire course of the beta blocker unless your doctor specifically tells you to stop. If you don’t complete your prescription, the beta blocker may not fully treat chest pain, hypertension, or other conditions.

Toprol XL uses

There are several FDA-approved uses for Toprol XL (metoprolol succinate), but your healthcare provider may also prescribe it off-label to treat other medical conditions.

Your PlushCare doctor may prescribe Toprol XL for any of the following reasons, or other reasons not listed here. Ask your online doctor or pharmacist if you have questions about why a medication is prescribed.

  • Hypertension

    Toprol XL is FDA-approved to treat high blood pressure (hypertension). It may be used alone or prescribed with other medication to lower blood pressure.

  • Angina pectoris

    Toprol XL is FDA-approved to treat angina pectoris (chest pain) and is appropriate for long-term treatment.

  • Heart failure

    Toprol XL is FDA-approved for the treatment of stable, symptomatic heart failure. It can also lower your risk of mortality or hospitalization for heart failure.

  • Supraventricular tachycardia

    Toprol XL is used "off label" to help manage supraventricular tachycardia.

How to take Toprol XL

Your pharmacist will provide you with instructions on how to take your Toprol XL prescription. Be sure to read your prescription label and follow the instructions. Call your doctor or pharmacy if you have any questions.

Toprol XL can come in different doses, so be sure to follow the specific instructions on your prescription. The starting doses can range from 25 to 100 mg/day for hypertension, from 100 mg to 400 mg/day for angina, and from 25 to 200 mg/day for congestive heart failure. Your doctor will adjust dosage levels to treat your condition as needed.

What to avoid while taking Toprol XL

Toprol XL has 491 drug interactions. Don’t change what you take without checking with your doctor or pharmacist. That includes other medications, supplements, and other drugs.
