Metoprolol ER (extended-release) and metoprolol tartrate (immediate-release) are different formulations of the same medication, and they are not directly interchangeable. Metoprolol ER is designed to be taken once daily, while metoprolol tartrate is typically taken multiple times a day due to its shorter duration of action. If you are considering switching between these formulations, it's important to consult your healthcare provider for proper dosing and to ensure safe and effective treatment.
