Suggest Remedy For Diminished Strength In Arms And Legs

I am taking metropolol along with losartan potassium to control my blood pressure. I have noticed a 6 kg weight increase and diminished strength in my arms and legs. Should I continue taking the metropolol (which was introduced about 2 months ago)?

there is no cause of loss of weight due to metoprolalol. it can be due to other cause. have regular monitouring and keep watch. if loss continue then other investigation can be done. exclude dibetes.
