Metaprolol is a Beta-Blocker. It is not a blood thinner.
It works to inhibit part of the parasympathetic nervous system. It is generally used to treat such things as high blood pressure, fast heart rates, and to help the heart contract harder to put out more blood volume.
Some common "Blood Thinnners" are Heparin, Lovenox, Warfarin (Coumadin), and Pradaxa.
More information about Metaprolol can be found at the manufacturer's website.
No. Carvedilol is a beta-blocker that affects heart rate and blood pressure. Statins affect cholesterol.
Carvedilol is used to treat high blood pressure and heart failure. It works by blocking certain receptors in the heart and blood vessels to help the heart beat more efficiently and reduce blood pressure.
no... 42 is pretty low and carvedilol can lower resting HR, but the true use of carvedilol is not to lower BP its to maintain heart function in patients with low ejection fraction.
No it is not a blood thinner
yes magnesium is a natural blood thinner.
Heparin is a blood thinner used to prevent blood clots.
People on blood thinner such as coumadin are not eligible to donate blood. The blood thinner inhibits the bloods ability to clot and may be dangerous to the recipient of the blood transfusion, especially during surgery.

Coreg is one of the various trade names of Carvedilol as a generic drug in the U.S. fro the company GlaxoSmithKline. Carvedilol is a non-selective beta blocker/alpha-1 blocker indicated in the treatment of mild to moderate congestive heart failure (CHF). Carvedilol is a beta blocker and an alpha blocker:* Norepinephrine stimulates the nerves that control the muscles of the heart by binding to the β1- and β2-adrenergic receptors. Carvedilol blocks the binding to those receptors, which both slows the heart rhythm and reduces the force of the heart's pumping. This lowers blood pressure and reduces heart failure. * Norepinephrine also binds to the α1-adrenergic receptors on blood vessels, causing them to constrict and raise blood pressure. Carvedilol blocks this binding to the α1-adrenergic receptors too, which also lowers blood pressure.
Losartan is not a blood thinner. Losartan only reduces blood pressure, it does not contain any ingredients to reduce cholesterol, or to thin blood.
