Usual Adult Dose for Myocardial Infarction:

Early treatment:
IV: 3 bolus injections of 5 mg of Betaloc Zok given at 2 minute intervals.
Oral: In patients who tolerate the full IV dose, Betaloc Zok tablets, 50 mg every 6 hours, should be initiated 15 minutes after the last IV dose and continued for 48 hours. Maintenance dose: 100 mg orally twice a day.
Patients who appear not to tolerate the full IV dose should be started on Betaloc Zok tablets at 25 mg or 50 mg every 6 hours 15 minutes after the last intravenous dose or as soon as their clinical condition allows.
Late treatment:
Oral: 100 mg orally twice a day.
Patients with contraindications to treatment during the early phase of suspected or definite myocardial infarction, patients who appear not to tolerate the full early treatment, and patients in whom the physician wishes to delay therapy for any other reason should be started on Betaloc Zok tablets as soon as their clinical condition allows.

If transient worsening of heart failure occurs, it may be treated with increased doses of diuretics, and it may also be necessary to lower the dose or temporarily discontinue treatment. The dose should not be increased until symptoms of worsening heart failure stabilize.
