WHAT BISOPROLOL FUMARATE TABLET IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
The active substance in this medicine is Bisoprolol fumarate.
Bisoprolol fumarate belongs to group of
medicines called beta-blockers. Beta-blocker protects heart from too
much activity. This medicine
works by affecting the body’s response to some nerve impulses,
especially in the heart. As a result,
Bisoprolol fumarate slows down the heart rate and makes the heart more
efficient at pumping blood
around the body. Heart failure occurs when the heart muscle is weak
and unable to pump enough
blood to supply the body’s need.
Bisoprolol 2.5 mg, 5 mg and 10 mg tablet are used in combination with
other medicines to treat stable
heart failure.
Bisoprolol 5 mg and 10 mg tablet are also used to treat high blood
pressure (Hypertension) and angina
pectoris (Chest pain caused by blockages in the arteries that supply
the heart muscle)
