Metoprolol (Met XL 25 Tablet) and Amlodipine work in different ways to manage blood pressure. Metoprolol is a beta-blocker that reduces your heart rate, while Amlodipine is a calcium channel blocker that relaxes your blood vessels. You should not switch them on your own, as your doctor needs to decide which is suitable for you based on your blood pressure and overall health.
