Metoprolol Tartrate Injection is a medication used to treat various cardiovascular conditions, such as high blood pressure, angina, and heart failure. It works by blocking certain receptors in the heart, causing a decrease in heart rate and blood pressure. The "single-dose vials" refer to the packaging of the medication, where each vial contains a single dose of the medication. In this case, the pack contains 10 vials, each containing 5 mL of the medication. This packaging is convenient for healthcare providers to administer the correct dose to patients.
How does Metoprolol Tartrate Injection Work?
Metoprolol tartrate injection is a medication that belongs to a class of drugs called beta-blockers. It works by blocking the action of certain natural chemicals in the body, such as epinephrine, on the heart and blood vessels. This helps to lower blood pressure, improve heart function, and reduce the workload on the heart. It also helps to prevent chest pain (angina) and heart attacks by reducing the amount of oxygen the heart needs to function. Metoprolol tartrate injection can be given as a single dose through a vein (intravenously) in emergency situations or for short-term use, such as during a heart attack.
