Is Smoking Marijuana Safe When On Metoprolol Succinate?
Hello, im on metoprolol succinate er. I only take one tablet a day until i go back to the cardiologist and i was wondering if i can smoke weed while on this medication. I used to smoke all the time i recently stopped due to the sinus tachycardia. On this medicine my heart issues have completely dissapeared. So im just wondering while taking this medicine if it would be okay to smoke?
Marijuana will increase the effect of metoprolol by increasing its level of the blood circulation.
You can face effects of metoprolol toxicity by taking marijuana. I suggest you to visit your doctor for its dose adjustment and you can have rehabilitation care for marijuana addiction.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
