What this pack is
COREG CR is the brand name in this record; carvedilol phosphate extended-release capsules is the generic name. Read both together with the dosage form (oral capsule).

COREG CRGeneric namecarvedilol phosphate extended-release capsules
How this medicine works
The current label describes carvedilol as having alpha-1 blocking and nonselective beta-adrenergic blocking activity. This helps explain why heart rate, blood pressure, conduction, fluid status, breathing and glucose need joint review, but it cannot produce an individual dose, conversion table or stop/switch plan.

What this page can show
This is a source-traceable public record. It helps you read the product identity and its listed source documents; each market still needs its own current record check.
What to bring to the next conversation
Bring the actual pack, the label or prescription, and a complete medicine list when you speak with a pharmacist or clinician.

PRODUCT PRESENTATION IDENTITY
Strength, pack and device identity
Package strength is not an individual dose. These fields help identify the exact labelled product; they do not calculate how much, how often, a missed-use action, splitting, switching or conversion.
How to read a score line: ‘scored’ or ‘unscored’ first identifies this labelled presentation. A score line by itself does not permit self-splitting, reducing or changing the product. Only an explicit statement in the current label for this exact presentation, checked with a pharmacist against the prescription, can support any further handling.

First match the market, dosage form and labelled amount on the pack in hand. The number of tablets, sachets or devices in a pack is not a personal dose or schedule.

Open the public label source ↗LABEL READING · NOT A PRESCRIPTION
COREG CR label reading: an extended-release capsule is not an immediate-release tablet; keep the beads intact
Reading level: drug-specific label reading. This record has been expanded around its dosage form or a higher-risk reading question; the current target-market label and professional review still apply.
Check COREG CR, carvedilol phosphate, extended-release capsule, exact strength and NDC. The label's professional conversion table requires prescriber oversight with age, dizziness, hypotension and syncope risk; the site does not turn it into an individual conversion.
- The label says to take it with food and not crush or chew the capsule. For swallowing difficulty, one whole capsule may be carefully opened and all beads sprinkled over a spoonful of applesauce that is not warm, then consumed immediately in its entirety. Do not store the mixture; absorption on other foods has not been tested. Do not divide, estimate half a capsule or grind the extended-release beads.
- COREG is an immediate-release carvedilol tablet; COREG CR is an extended-release carvedilol phosphate capsule. Although the label contains a clinician conversion table, older people or those at higher risk of hypotension, dizziness or syncope may require a different starting approach. Do not self-convert, combine, alternate or substitute from a brand stem, daily immediate-release milligrams, CR capsule milligrams or frequency.
- Do not stop abruptly. The label warns that abrupt beta-blocker withdrawal may worsen angina and may be followed by myocardial infarction or ventricular arrhythmia. Do not stop from one blood-pressure or pulse reading; use local emergency care immediately for chest pain, fainting, severe breathlessness or another acute severe feature.
- A slow pulse, postural dizziness, fainting, hypotension or rapid change in weight or swelling requires prompt contact with the care team. The label reports a higher combined rate of dizziness, hypotension or syncope in people over 65 switched from the highest immediate-release dose to the highest CR dose; this is why a website must not automate conversion.
- Review digoxin, clonidine, amiodarone, fluoxetine/paroxetine, verapamil/diltiazem, another beta blocker, glucose-lowering medicines and all OTC/supplement products together. The label flags heart rate, conduction, hypotension, digoxin concentration and masking of hypoglycaemia warnings; do not self-separate or decide which medicine to stop first.

Match five details before using a safety record
- Brand and generic nameBoth must match the medicine named by the record.
- Dosage form and strengthTablet, capsule, injection, inhaler, patch and eye drop are not interchangeable.

Six checks for this medicine pack
Use this card to organise questions about COREG CR (carvedilol phosphate extended-release capsules). Keep the exact pack, its current label and the full medicine list together.
Identify the exact product
COREG CR is the brand in this record and carvedilol phosphate extended-release capsules is the active-ingredient name. Check both with the dosage form (Carvedilol phosphate oral extended-release capsules: 10 mg, 20 mg, 40 mg and 80 mg; not another pack of COREG immediate-release carvedilol tablets) and the market on the actual pack.
Read the labelled strength in context
mg, mcg, mg/mL or a percentage describes the labelled amount in one tablet, capsule, measured volume, spray or other unit. It is not an answer to how many units a person should take.
Check before splitting or opening
Before splitting, crushing, chewing or opening anything, find an explicit instruction for this exact product in its current label and ask a pharmacist. A score line or a previous pack is not enough by itself.
Put every product on one list
Include prescriptions, over-the-counter products, eye drops, creams, vitamins, minerals, herbs and supplements. A pharmacist or prescriber needs the whole list before any combination, alternation, switch or stop is considered.
Ask a specific pharmacogenetics question
Ask which medicine, which gene and what clinical decision a result could change. A gene–drug association does not mean broad genetic testing is needed for everyone and must not be used to change treatment without professional review.
Know when to seek urgent help
For a suspected overdose, a severe allergic reaction, fainting or difficulty breathing, use the local emergency or poison-information service now. Do not wait for a website reply or alter several medicines to test what caused it.
This card does not calculate a dose, decide whether medicines can be combined, or replace a clinician or pharmacist. Market-specific current labels and the person's full context still need review.

HOW IT WORKS · NOT A TREATMENT PLAN
How carvedilol phosphate works: it provides carvedilol with alpha-1 and nonselective beta blockade
- Extended release changes the delivery process; a shared active moiety does not make COREG immediate-release tablets and COREG CR capsules milligram-for-milligram substitutes.
- The label provides CYP2D6, CYP2C9 and P-gp interaction cues. A gene or enzyme name is not a basis for self-adjustment, stopping psychiatric medicine or default whole-genome testing.
- The complete medicine list and actual packs matter more than one heart-rate or blood-pressure reading or a brand name. Any change belongs with clinicians and pharmacists who can review symptoms, monitoring, age and liver/kidney function.

How to read this record
Read each document in its stated market, date and dosage-form context. A historical record is not a current label and does not support individual medical, substitution or purchasing conclusions.
Keep international and mainland China records separate
This page has a U.S. public history/regulatory archive but no mainland China record for this specific product. That does not establish whether the medicine exists, is approved or is available in mainland China. Verify product identity, dosage form, strength, holder and the current label item by item.
RECORD FAQ
Record questions
Can a COREG CR capsule be opened and half taken?
No. The current label only allows opening one whole capsule for swallowing difficulty and sprinkling all beads on a spoonful of applesauce that is not warm for immediate complete consumption. Do not halve, estimate beads, crush, chew or store.
Can COREG tablets and COREG CR be switched directly by milligrams?
Not by self-direction. The current label includes clinician conversion information, but age and risks of dizziness, hypotension and syncope alter the starting approach. Take both packs and the full medicine list to the prescribing team; the site provides no individual conversion table.
