A member asked:

Bp is 130/90, should i give montebloc as an emergency meds or it should be used as maintenance drug only.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not an emergency: 130/90 is not an emergency, in fact, it's almost normal. Atp3 guidelines define normal as <135/<85 with 90 being "high normal". Use montebloc (metoprolol) as prescribed, as a maintenance drug, if it has been prescribed for you mother.
