A member asked:
How long after last dose of metoprolol tartrate would it take to notice increase in hr and/or bp if not continuing dosage of 12.5mg bid?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
24 hours: The half life of metoprolol tartrate is 3-7 hours which means that about every 5 hours your body will clean out half of the drug in your blood stream. After about 4 half lives 95% of the drug is out of your system (assuming you are not taking any more) but some people have said their blood pressure will stay controlled 3-5 days after stopping the drug.
