Does Metoprolol Succinate Cause Stiffness In The Neck?
I started taking Metoprolol succinate ER 50 mg about 10 days ago after taking 50mg of Atenolol for about 20 years. Atenolol became unavaialable. The past two days I have developed a very stiff neck. I take 3000mg of fish oil and 1000mg of calcium, a multivitamin and 82 mg of aspirin on a daily basis. Could the stiff neck be caused by the addition of Metoprolol?

Hello,
You would not expect. Stiff neck is pretty common. I cannot say in your particular case, but generally, it would be a coincidence.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Matt Wachsman
