The most serious side effect of metoprolol is severe bradycardia, which is an excessively slow heart rate that can lead to fainting, dizziness, or even heart failure in extreme cases. Other potentially serious side effects include hypotension (low blood pressure) and heart block, a condition where the electrical signals in the heart are partially or completely blocked. It is important for individuals taking metoprolol to be monitored by a healthcare provider to manage these risks.
