| Metoprolol is a competitive, [[Beta-1 adrenergic receptor|β<sub>1</sub>]]-selective (cardioselective) [[beta blocker|blocker]] used in treatment of [[angina pectoris]], [[hypertension]], [[arrhythmia]], and [[migraine]].

| The active substance metoprolol is employed either as ''metoprolol [[succinic acid|succinate]]'' or as ''metoprolol [[tartrate]]'' (where 100 mg metoprolol [[tartrate]] corresponds to 95 mg metoprolol [[succinic acid|succinate]]). The [[tartrate]] is an immediate-release and the [[succinic acid|succinate]] is an extended-release [[Pharmaceutical formulation|formulation]].<ref>{{cite journal | author = Cupp M | title = Alternatives for Metoprolol Succinate | journal = Pharmacist's Letter / Prescriber's Letter | year = 2009 | volume = 25 | issue = 250302 | url = http://www.ncbop.org/PDF/MetoprololShortageMarch2009.pdf | format = pdf | accessdate = }}</ref>
