WHAT BISOPROLOL AND ASPIRIN CAPSULES ARE AND WHAT THEY ARE USED FOR BISOPROLOL AND ASPIRIN capsules contain two active ingredients, bisoprolol fumarate and acetylsalicylic acid. Bisoprolol belongs to a group of drugs called beta blockers. This medicine works by affecting the body’s response to some nerve impulses, especially in the heart and has the effect of reducing blood pressure. Acetylsalicylic acid has the effect of preventing the development of blood clots. Acetylsalicylic acid is also known as Aspirin. BISOPROLOL AND ASPIRIN capsules are used in the treatment of high blood pressure or in patients at risk of heart disease, heart attack or stroke who were previously treated with the individual ingredients. BISOPROLOL AND ASPIRIN capsules may also be used to prevent complications following certain types of heart surgeries. 2. Preberite celoten dokument
