Good question: Phenergan (promethazine) raises metoprolol levels. You can use them together but should monitor HR and BP. You may need to lower the dose of the metoprolol.

Provided original answer
1/2 of 25 (which you take) is a very small dose and you're probably fine, but it's easy to monitor your HR and BP. Excess metoprolol can cause the average HR to drop <50 and/or the BP to fall < 100.
