Bisoprolol
Bisoprolol is a beta-blocker medication primarily used to treat high blood pressure and heart-related issues. By slowing the heart rate, it reduces the workload on the heart and helps it pump more efficiently. Bisoprolol is typically prescribed for managing chronic heart failure, angina, and hypertension. It works by blocking certain natural chemicals in the body, like epinephrine, affecting the heart and blood vessels. Taken once daily, Bisoprolol tablets help in maintaining a steady blood pressure, contributing to overall cardiovascular health. For optimal results, adherence to the prescribed dosage is recommended.Active substance:
