Can you take diet pills when taking toprol xl?


Question:
I take toprol xl 12.75 mg daily for high blood pressure. I am thinking about aking a diet pill to help loose weight, is this safe?

Answer:
You need to ask your doctor about that.

Many of the diet pills out there contain stimulants which can increase your blood pressure. You need to check with your doctor to make sure it's safe.

But whatever happened to good old fashioned diet and exercise? It takes longer sure, but it's a healthy way of getting healthy.
Surely, you are better asking a doctor?
I can not stress enough that this is a question that must be asked of a medical practitioner. I find it highly unlikely that the same doctor that RX'd Toprol XL would also perscribe, recommend, or condone the use of a diet drug.


This medication is used on patients with heart failure, high blood pressure (hypertension), or angina pectoris (chest pain). TOPROL-XL is used to treat high blood pressure, angina pectoris over the long term, and heart failure. In heart failure, TOPROL-XL is used to treat stable, symptomatic patients with Class II or III heart failure, as defined by the New York Heart Association classification, that is caused by high blood pressure, blocked heart arteries, or other heart muscle disorders.

THIS IS NOTHING TO PLAY WITH, ASK the DOCTOR
