Patient's question:
Doctor, just now my one-year-old child accidentally swallowed half a tablet of metoprolol succinate. Don't worry, is there any side effect? About twenty minutes after eating, he fell asleep for a nap!Doctor's answer:
Metoprolol succinate is primarily used to treat high blood pressure, angina, and has the effect of slowing heart rate. For adults, the usual dose is one tablet per day. This dose is a bit high for a one-year-old child. You can wait and see if there are any other symptoms, and then go to the hospital for a check-up. The above suggestions are for the question "May I ask if my one-year-old child accidentally ingested half a tablet of metoprolol succinate?" I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health and happiness every day!
