Benefits of Met XL NT Tablet ER

Angina (heart-related chest pain)
MET XL NT TABLET relaxes the blood vessels so that blood can flow more easily around your body and makes sure that your heart is getting a good supply of oxygen.

This medicine can help increase your ability to exercise and go about your daily life more easily by reducing the frequency of angina attacks. You should take it regularly and as long as it is prescribed for it to work effectively.
Heart failure

The most common symptoms are breathlessness, tiredness, and swelling in your legs, ankles, abdomen and other parts of your body. MET XL NT TABLET makes it easier for your heart to pump blood around your body and is therefore an effective treatment for heart failure.

How Met XL NT Tablet ER works

MET XL NT TABLET is a combination of two medicines: Metoprolol Succinate and Isosorbide Mononitrate. Metoprolol Succinate is a nitrate which relaxes the blood vessels and decreases the oxygen demand of the heart. Isosorbide Mononitrate is a long-acting beta blocker that works specifically on the heart. It works by slowing down the heart rate and makes the heart more efficient at pumping blood throughout the body. Together, they improve symptoms of angina (chest pain) and heart failure.
