Metolar TL 25 Tablet is a medicine used for treating high blood pressure. By lowering blood pressure, it helps in preventing future heart attacks and strokes. Early treatment with this medicine also improves the chances of survival in patients with heart attacks.
It is advised to take Metolar TL 25 Tablet with food at a fixed time each day to maintain consistent levels of medicine in the blood. Keep taking it for as long as advised by your doctor. Even if you feel well, do not stop this medicine on your own because high blood pressure often has no symptoms. If you stop taking it, your condition may get worse. Keeping active with regular exercise, reducing your weight and eating a healthy diet will also help control your blood pressure. Follow your doctor’s advice while taking this medicine.
Some common side effects of this medicine include headache, weakness, dizziness, decreased blood pressure, increased potassium level in blood, orthostatic hypotension (occasionally with syncope), breathlessness, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, and fatigue.

You also need to tell your doctor what other medicines you are taking especially those used to treat high blood pressure or heart conditions.
In Treatment of Hypertension (high blood pressure)
Hypertension or an increase in blood pressure occurs when the blood vessels that supply blood to your heart become narrow. As a result of this, blood cannot flow smoothly to the heart, heart rate increases and it fails to pump blood effectively to other parts of the body. This puts a strain on the heart that can cause a chest pain or even a heart attack. Metolar TL 25 Tablet reduces pressure in the blood vessels. It relaxes the blood vessels so that blood can flow more easily to your heart. This reduces strain on the heart and slows down heart rate. This further reduces the risk of having a stroke, a heart attack, or kidney problems in the future. You do not usually feel any direct benefit from taking this medicine, but it works in the long term to keep you well. You should take it regularly as prescribed for this medicine to be most effective, even if you feel better.

Hypertension is clinically high blood pressure. Persistent high arterial blood pressure above 120/80 mm HG is termed as pre-hypertension or hypertension, but the point to be emphasized is that this rise in blood pressure is persistent. Transient increase in BP occurs in stress and anxiety and needs to be treated accordingly.
