In medicine, metoprolol is a adrenergic beta-antagonist medication that is a "selective adrenergic beta-1-blocking agent with no stimulatory action. It's binding to plasma albumin is weaker than alprenolol and it may be useful in angina pectoris, hypertension, or cardiac arrhythmias." It is also used for heart failure.[1]

History

Metoprolol tartrate was developed by Novartis and received approval in the United States August 7, 1978.[2]

Toprol-XL brand of metoprolol succinate was developed by Astra Pharmaceuticals. Astra and Zeneca merged in 1999 to become AstraZeneca. Toprol's patent was filed on Sep 28, 1990 and approved on Jan 14, 1992 .[3] It received approval in the United States on January 10, 1992.[4] According to drugstore.com, 30 days of 100 mg pills costs $52.99 in January, 2009.

Generic metoprolol succinate was developed by Sandoz and received approval in the United States on July 31, 2006. According to drugstore.com, 30 days of 100 mg pills costs $25.99 in January, 2009.

Astrazenaca and the manufacturer of generic metoprolol succinate have engaged in a lawsuit.[5]

Chemistry

The IUPAC name of metroprolol is:

  • (±)-1-(Isopropylamino)-3-[p-(2-methoxyethyl)phenoxy]-2-propanol (according to Dailymed)
  • 1-[4-(2-methoxyethyl)phenoxy]-3-(propan-2-ylamino)propan-2-ol (according to DrugBank)[6]

Metabolism

It is metabolized by cytochrome P-450 2D6 allele and so may have drug interactions[7] and inherited variations in metabolism.[8] Although individuals with reduced metabolism genotypes report increased drug toxicity from metoprolol[9] and require more adjustments in dose[10], when a sufficiently long period of time is used to titrate the dosage, adverse effects are not increased.[11][12]

Dosage

For healthy adults, the starting dose is 25 to 100 mg daily in single or divided doses and the maximum dose is 400 to 450 mg/day.

Efficacy

Metoprolol can benefit patients with heart failure.[13]
