Question Hi, I have a prescription of Toprol XL 25mg from United States. Currently, I'm in Nepal. I searched for the same medicine in Nepal but I can't find it. What brand for the same medicine would be available in Nepal? Thanks.
Answer Hi,
I do not know much about the product manufactured in Nepal, since I am based in India, but I am aware that most of the pharmaceutical products in the country are imported from India. Please search for Met XL of Ajantha Pharma or Revelol of Ipca . Both these brands are equivalent to Toprol and are available in the required strength.
Sorry for the delay in replying. My office has been shut for three days due to terror threats and access to internet is restricted all over the city.
