Since my heart ultrasound is normal, is it safe for me to continue taking Prolomet XL-25 long-term for a fast heartbeat caused by anxiety, and what long-term effects or stages should I expect?
This means your heart structure is completely healthy. Prolomet XL-25 (metoprolol) is generally very safe for long-term use to manage physical anxiety symptoms like a fast heart rate. It works safely to keep your heart rhythm calm. Long-term, it is well-tolerated; there are no progressive 'stages' of side effects, though some experience mild tiredness or cold hands. Please continue taking it as prescribed. It is very important never to stop this medication suddenly, as this can cause your heart rate to jump.
