Betaloc Zok is a medication prescribed to treat high blood pressure (hypertension), chest pain (angina pectoris), and heart failure. It belongs to the category of beta-blockers, which work by reducing the heart rate and widening blood vessels to improve blood flow and lower blood pressure. Betaloc Zok comes in extended-release tablets to ensure a consistent release of the medication for effective management of cardiovascular conditions. Its main active ingredient is metoprolol succinate.

Suggested Use
Betaloc Zok is used to treat high blood pressure, chronic stable angina, heart failure, and to prevent heart attacks. The dosage should be adjusted based on how the patient responds and tolerates the medication. Always follow the doctor’s instructions.
Warning
- Betaloc Zok can lead to slow heart rate, low blood pressure, and worsening heart failure. It should be used carefully in patients with existing heart conditions.
- Be cautious in patients with asthma or COPD as beta-blockers can worsen bronchospasm.
- Betaloc Zok may hide signs of low blood sugar, so diabetic patients should monitor their levels closely.
- Patients with severe allergic reactions should be careful as beta-blockers can make reactions worse.
- Gradually reduce the dose of Betaloc Zok under medical supervision to avoid worsening angina or heart attack risk.
- Be aware of interactions with other medications, including antihypertensives, antiarrhythmics, and certain antidepressants.
- Report any severe side effects like difficulty breathing or sudden weight gain to your doctor immediately.
- Follow your healthcare provider’s instructions for taking Betaloc Zok and do not change your dose without consulting them.
