High Blood Pressure
"I have been taking Toprol-XL for about 8 years now. I started at 10mg and then 50mg and now at 100mg. It has brought my Blood Pressure under control - was 150 /80   - now at 130 /70 . Also brought down my Heart Rate, which was 88 resting to 60  resting. I am a light smoker who has asthma/mild COPD, metoprolol has shown no effect on these conditions as my PF and FEv1 has not changed .

PROS: Reduced Blood Pressure to normal
Reduced anxiety levels.

CONS: Tired (mild), weight gain (mild)
Erectile dysfunction (mild), Heart skipping a beat (occasional only and mild)."
