A member asked:
Is there any long term effects for taking toprol (metoprolol) xl?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
I am sure there : Are short and long term effects of any medication including toprol (metoprolol). But your doctor has determined that its benefits outweigh its side effects. It is a complex decision when your doctor starts a medication, based upon extensive education, training, and experience. If you have any doubts about his judgment, you should ask him to clarify why he chose this med for you, or get another opinion.
