Can metoprolol be used for migraine headaches?

Headaches are not a listed side effect of beta blockers, the category of blood pressure medication metoprolol is in.

If you are pregnant, you should see your doctors to get an accurate blood pressure reading, because hypertension is a symptom of preeclampsia.

Could have asthma type symptoms after taking metoprolol?

I have both asthma and high blood pressure and am taking metoprolol. I was very concerned that this would work against my asthma so I had very detailed conversations with both my asthma doctor and my regular doctor. Its been 3 years now since starting metoprolol. My BP is under control and so is my asthma. Although metoprolol should work against your asthma - only thing I experienced was a slight cough when i first started. I suggest you talk with both your doctors at length about taking this drug with asthma. There are other HP drugs out there - but metoprolol is the tried and true one. Talk with your doctors.

If you are allergic to Metoprolol - a beta blocker - does it mean you are allergic to all beta blockers?

No, not necessarily. You may be allergic to the dyes or inactive ingredients in Metoprolol that is or may not be found in another beta blocker or even in another generic Metoprolol. You should double check with your doctor or pharmacist because there is also a chance that you may be one of the few people that cannot tolerate a beta blocker due to health conditions and other factors.
