Drug Interaction
I smoke marijuana every evening before bed. Recently, I was prescribed metoprolol (50mg) for high blood pressure. I stopped smoking because I was unsure how my body would respond to the metoprolol, but more importantly was scared how the two would interact. It has been more than a week of no smoking? Is there any harm to smoking? Is it dangerous? Can it have adverse effects on my body? Can mixing the two be fatal?
