A member asked:
What would be best to keep my heart rate control for longer time. 50mg of atenolol or 50mg metoprolol succinate. cardio wants me to switch to metoprol?

Metop Succinate: Metoprolol Succinate would provider longer, and more stable beta blocking effects. Assure you are getting metoprolol succinate, and not tartrate variety (the tartrate variety is shorter acting and requires twice per day dosing).
