Selomet Tablet 25 mg contains Metoprolol Tartrate, a selective β1-adrenergic receptor blocker (beta-blocker) used to manage cardiovascular conditions such as 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, thereby helping to control blood pressure and relieve chest discomfort.

Selomet Tablet 25 mg is widely used in patients with cardiovascular risk factors, including those with a history of heart attack or arrhythmias. It is effective in lowering the risk of complications from chronic hypertension, stabilizing angina symptoms, and supporting heart function in conditions of left ventricular dysfunction. The tablet is intended for oral administration and is typically taken once or twice daily based on medical advice.
