Brief Answer:
You can take, but cautiously.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

I have gone through your query and here is my advice.

As per your history, yes, you can take tablet viagra while on tablet metoprolol.

As per many clinical studies, metoprolol increases viagra level /effects. So it would be better to take in a small dose. So use it cautiously.

Taking Viagra does not affect your heart rate / reduce blood pressure. But it would be better to consult a sexologist for a detailed clinical evaluation.

Along with that avoid stress. Take a balanced diet /proper rest. Avoid smoking and alcohol if at all do.

Hope I have answered your query.
