What is the difference between inderal 40mg and toprol (metoprolol) xl 50?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Subtle: Inderal is more lipophilic than toprol (metoprolol) - it crosses the blood brain barrier more readily than toprol (metoprolol). Thus it's better for migraine and stage fright but can cause more fatigue and depression. Toprol (metoprolol) is more beta 1 specific than inderal. That makes it a better drug for someone who may have COPD or mild asthma.
