Will Metoprolol succinate (Torol XL or Lopressor) show up on a drug test?

I took one of my fathers Metoprolol pills for high blood pressure, and I was wondering if it was going to show up on my driver’s drug test as anything that may pose a concern?

Concur with above author, Metoprolol will not show up on a standard urine drug screen.

First of all, why did you take the pill?? No, it will not show up on a drug test. Metoprolol has no "high" effects. It works to lower blood pressure by reducing the power of the contractions of the heart. So in short, taking the pill without the need, may cause lightheadness or a faint feeling, but it will not cause you to fail a drug test. If you fail the drug test, it was from something else!
