Suggest An Alternative Of Metoprolol

My dad is on the metoprolol and is experiencing quite a few of the side effects listed on your site. Is there another medication that can be recommended with less side effects? Also, I m looking for a new doctor. Is there a geriatrics doctor you can recommend in the Warren County, New Jersey. We live in Washington, NJ.

Hello,

There are a lot of alternative to metoprolol. However, this should only be done by the consultation of your own doctor who knows better about all the story and the reason for prescribing the drug and hence the best alternative to it or sometimes by simply changing the timings of the drug.
We do encounter pt with the side effect of drugs and changing then. So you must not hesitate to see your doctor and discuss the issue.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Mahboob Ur Rahman
