A heart attack occurs when blood flow to a part of the heart muscle is blocked, often by a blood clot. Warning signs may include chest pain or pressure that radiates to the arm, neck, or jaw, as well as shortness of breath, nausea, or sweating. If you experience any of these symptoms, seek emergency medical attention immediately.

It is important to consult her doctor for a thorough evaluation of her joint pain and elevated blood pressure. She may need blood tests and a review of her current medications to rule out side effects or other causes of her symptoms. Meanwhile, ensure she takes her blood pressure medication as prescribed and avoids over-the-counter pain relievers that could raise blood pressure without medical guidance.

Met XL AM (Metoprolol and Amlodipine) may cause common side effects such as headache, dizziness, facial flushing, oedema (swelling), tiredness, or an irregular heartbeat. While most of these side effects are mild, not everyone experiences them. Consult your doctor if these side effects persist or worsen. Regular monitoring of blood pressure and heart rate is recommended while taking this medication.

You should seek immediate medical attention for chest pain, as it may indicate a heart-related emergency. Follow your healthcare provider?s guidance to manage your blood pressure and blood sugar through prescribed medications, a balanced diet, regular physical activity, and stress management. Regular check-ups and monitoring of your vital signs are essential to prevent complications such as a heart attack, stroke, or diabetic emergencies.

If Met XL AM (which contains Metoprolol and Amlodipine) is unavailable, consult your doctor to select a safe alternative. Your doctor may recommend taking Metoprolol and Amlodipine as separate tablets or another suitable antihypertensive combination based on your health profile. Do not switch medications on your own.
