Can valsartan and metoprolol succinate be taken together?

Valsartan and metoprolol succinate can be taken at the same time under the supervision of a physician, and there is no conflict between these two drugs used together. Valsartan is an angiotensin II receptor antagonist, which can be clinically used for hypertension, heart failure and after acute myocardial infarction, with antihypertensive effect. This drug should not be used together with potassium-preserving diuretics, so as not to increase blood potassium. Metoprolol is a beta-blocker, which can also be used to treat high blood pressure, as well as angina pectoris and chronic heart failure. However, the drug is not suitable for people with sick sinus node syndrome, II or III degree AV block, symptomatic bradycardia or low blood pressure. The combination of metoprolol and valsartan can enhance the effect of lowering blood pressure, but it should not be taken without authorization, as it may cause blood pressure to drop too quickly. Be sure to follow the doctor’s instructions for proper use, blood pressure should be monitored during the use of the drug, if there is any abnormality should be promptly diagnosed and treated.
