Consumer:

Consumer information for this minor interaction is not currently available. Some minor drug interactions may not be clinically relevant in all patients. Minor drug interactions do not usually cause harm or require a change in therapy. However, your healthcare provider can determine if adjustments to your medications are needed.

Professional:

High doses of salicylates may blunt the antihypertensive effects of beta-blockers. The proposed mechanism is inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis. Low-dose aspirin does not appear to affect blood pressure. In addition, beta-blockers may exert an antiplatelet effect, which may be additive with the effects of some salicylates. Metoprolol may also increase aspirin absorption and/or plasma concentrations of salicylates; however, the clinical significance of this effect is unknown. Data have been conflicting. Until more information is available, patients who require concomitant therapy should be monitored for altered antihypertensive response whenever a salicylate is introduced or discontinued, or when its dosage is modified.
