Should Metoprolol Dosage Be Lowered In Case Of Dizziness?

I have been taking metoprolol tartrate for several years for high blood pressure. My blood pressure is well controlled at about 130/72. Several times during the day, my heart rate is dropping to the low 30 s and I begin to feel dizzy with tingling all over my body. Only lasts for a few minutes. Should I cut out the metropolol?
