Date:10/27/2009

>
  • TOPROL-XL is a once-daily medication providing treatment of high blood pressure throughout the day
  • Talk to your doctor to see if TOPROL-XL is right for you.

    Please see accompanying full Prescribing Information including a boxed WARNING regarding abrupt cessation of therapy at www.toprolxl.com.

    Indication and important risk information you should know about TOPROL-XL(®) (metoprolol succinate) extended-release tablets.

    TOPROL-XL is indicated for the treatment of high blood pressure. It may be used alone or in combination with other medications to treat high blood pressure. It's good for you to know more about your medical condition and the medicine you are taking for it. So, talk to your doctor about high blood pressure and TOPROL-XL.

    Because of the possibility of serious side effects, such as chest pain or a heart attack, you should not stop taking TOPROL-XL suddenly. If your doctor decides you should stop taking TOPROL-XL, you may be instructed to slowly reduce your dose over a period of time before stopping it completely.

    TOPROL-XL may not be right for everyone, especially people who have the following health conditions:

    • Extreme slowing of the heart rate
    • Sudden and severe drop in the blood pressure and blood flow through the body because the heart is not pumping normally
    • Uncontrolled heart failure
    • Slowdown of the heart's electrical signal causing a slower heart rate
    • Damage to the heart's natural pacemaker that affects the heart's rhythm unless a pacemaker device is in the body
    • Any allergies to TOPROL-XL or its ingredients

    It is important to take your medications every day as directed by your doctor.
