Brand Names: Lopressor, Metoprolol Succinate ER, Metoprolol Tartrate, Toprol-XL Generic Name: metoprolol (Pronunciation: me TOE pro lol) What is metoprolol (Lopressor, Metoprolol Succinate ER, Metoprolol Tartrate, Toprol-XL)? Metoprolol is in a group of drugs called beta-blockers. Beta-blockers affect the heart and circulation (blood flow through arteries and veins).
I do not have heart disease other than chronic atrial fibrillation that's been with me for 50 yrs. To date, no structural heart problems, no artery disease other than pulmonary hypertension that accompanies my rare lung disease IPF. I cannot take metoprolol (Toprol) because of its devastating side effect of sleepiness. It's greatly exacerbated my lifelong neurological condition called narcolepsy, which brings sleep attacks at unpredicted times. I'm unable to make doctors' appts or do very much at all because of the sleepiness.
