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 his nap!Doctor's answer:
Metoprolol succinate is primarily used to treat high blood pressure, angina, and has the effect of slowing heart rate. The usual adult dosage is one tablet per day, but this amount is a bit high for a one-year-old child. You can wait and see if there are any other symptoms, and if so, go to the hospital for a check-up. The above advice is 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!
