Hi, After going through your medical details I understand your concern and would like to tell you that you can continue to take Metoprolol SR as it is the safest medication with lesser side effects. Kindly take healthy diet and maintain a good physical activity for better heart health. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
