Agents used for the treatment or prevention of cardiac arrhythmias. They may affect the polarization-repolarization phase of the action potential, its excitability or refractoriness, or impulse conduction or membrane responsiveness within cardiac fibers. Anti-arrhythmia agents are often classed into four main groups according to their mechanism of action: sodium channel blockade, beta-adrenergic blockade, repolarization prolongation, or calcium channel blockade.
Drugs used in the treatment of acute or chronic vascular HYPERTENSION regardless of pharmacological mechanism. Among the antihypertensive agents are DIURETICS; (especially DIURETICS, THIAZIDE); ADRENERGIC BETA-ANTAGONISTS; ADRENERGIC ALPHA-ANTAGONISTS; ANGIOTENSIN-CONVERTING ENZYME INHIBITORS; CALCIUM CHANNEL BLOCKERS; GANGLIONIC BLOCKERS; and VASODILATOR AGENTS.
Drugs that inhibit the actions of the sympathetic nervous system by any mechanism. The most common of these are the ADRENERGIC ANTAGONISTS and drugs that deplete norepinephrine or reduce the release of transmitters from adrenergic postganglionic terminals (see ADRENERGIC AGENTS). Drugs that act in the central nervous system to reduce sympathetic activity (e.g., centrally acting alpha-2 adrenergic agonists, see ADRENERGIC ALPHA-AGONISTS) are included here.
Drugs that bind to and block the activation of ADRENERGIC BETA-1 RECEPTORS.
DescriptionMetoprolol succinate represents an entirely novel extended-release formulation of metoprolol, requiring administration only once daily to ensure constant metoprolol blood concentrations and sustained β1-adrenergic blocking effects throughout the 24-hour period. It offers numerous advantages in both pharmacology and clinical therapeutics. Clinically, it is primarily indicated for the management of hypertension,High blood pressure medication,angina pectoris, and stable chronic heart failure with left ventricular systolic dysfunction.Administer orally once daily, preferably in the morning. Tablets may be divided but must not be chewed or crushed. Swallow with at least half a glass of liquid. Concomitant food intake does not affect bioavailability. Dosage should be individualised to avoid bradycardia. Effective dosing guidelines are as follows: Hypertension: 47.5–95 mg once daily. Patients unresponsive to 95 mg metoprolol succinate sustained-release tablets may combine with other antihypertensives, preferably diuretics and dihydropyridine calcium channel blockers, or increase dosage. Angina pectoris: 95–190 mg once daily. May be combined with nitrates or increased dosage as required.

HistoryMetoprolol Succinate, the world's first Beta-1 Selective Receptor blocker, was developed by AstraZeneca and first launched in 1992. It is commonly used in clinical practice to treat hypertension, angina pectoris, and stable chronic heart failure with impaired left ventricular systolic function.Metoprolol was first developed in 1969 at Hassle Laboratories in Sweden. As a selective beta-1 adrenergic receptor blocker, it binds to beta-1 receptors to antagonize the effects of neurotransmitters and catecholamines on beta receptors. This action increases vascular smooth muscle sensitivity to vasoactive mediators and inhibits renin secretion. Clinically, it is used to treat hypertension, angina pectoris, and heart failure.
UsesMetoprolol Succinate is used in the treatment of patients suffering from chronic heart failure, as well as to treat blood pressure from mild hypertension. β-adrenoceptor antagonist or β-blocker.
