A member asked:
If a 23 year old guy who has just high bp and heart rate and has been given metoprolol succinate 50 mg for 5 months, what will happen if he does meth?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Double trouble: Methamphetamine (meth) kills over time, through damaging the brain and other organs by constricting blood vessels (decreasing nutrient and oxygen flow), raising body temperature (overheats organs), etc... Meth can kill rapidly by fatal heart rhythms, heart attacks, and strokes. Meth also causes psychotic and aggressive behavior, which can lead to deadly accidents or being shot dead by the police.
