POSOLOGY AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION
Posology
The dosage should be individually adjusted. It is recommended to start
with the
lowest possible dose. In some patients, 5 mg per day may be adequate.
The usual dose
is 10 mg once daily with a maximum recommended dose of 20 mg per day.
_Special Populations _
_Renal or liver impairment _
Adjustment of dose in patients with mild to moderate liver- or kidney
impairment is
usually not necessary. In patients with severe renal impairment
(creatinine clearance
< 20 ml/min) or severe liver impairment, the dose should not exceed 10
mg once
daily. This dosage may eventually be divided into halves.
_Elderly _
No dosage adjustment is normally required. It is recommended to start
with the lowest
possible dose.
_Paediatric population _
Bisoprolol tablets are not recommended for use in children due to a
lack of data (see
section 5.3).
_Discontinuation of treatment _
Treatment should not be stopped abruptly (see section 4.4). The dosage
should be
diminished slowly by a weekly halving of the dose.
Method of administration
Bisoprolol 10 mg tablets are for oral administration.
The tablet should be swallowed with a sufficient amount of fluid (e.g.
one glass of
water). The tablet can be taken with or without food.
