Selomet Tablet 50 mg contains Metoprolol Tartrate, a selective β1-adrenergic receptor blocker (beta-blocker) used to manage cardiovascular conditions including hypertension (high blood pressure), angina pectoris (chest pain), and heart failure. By selectively blocking β1 receptors in the heart, Metoprolol reduces heart rate, cardiac output, and myocardial oxygen demand, helping to control blood pressure and relieve angina symptoms.

This tablet is also used to manage certain arrhythmias, improve heart function after a heart attack, and reduce the risk of cardiovascular complications in high-risk patients. Selomet Tablet 50 mg provides effective cardiovascular control for patients who require a moderate dose, offering convenient oral administration and predictable therapeutic effects.
