Clinical studies have shown that Toprol can significantly lower systolic and diastolic blood pressure. The higher the dose of Toprol, the greater the drop in blood pressure is expected to be. By lowering high blood pressure, Toprol can also decrease the risks that often occur with long-term high blood pressure. However, Toprol does not cure high blood pressure.
Toprol has been studied for treating high blood pressure in children as young as six years old; it has not been adequately studied in children younger than six years old or for other uses.
