Is metoprolol a placebo?
Metoprolol is a beta blocker that has been around for years and years. It is the generic name for Lopressor. It is cheap because it isn’t new but is effective. If you’re only taking 12.5mg talk to your doctor about increasing your dose. That or see a psychiatrist about anti-anxiety medication options. You may want to have your thyroid checked if you haven’t already as a hyperactive thyroid can cause these symptoms. Don’t let price and size fool you. And don’t think more is better. If you take more on your own without the recommendation of your doctor and you lower your heart rate too much you’ll be in trouble in the emergency room.
