A member asked:
Would an initial dosage of 250 mg metoprolol succinate be too much? i have mild hypertension and tachycardia.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
High: The starting dose of metoprolol varies according to the indications for its use and the exact condition of the patient. However, a starting dose of 250 mg would be high in most typical situations. Daily doses up to 400 mg and even higher are used in some situations, but not as a starting dose.
