Bisoprolol 5mg tablets are a prescription medication (a type of beta-blocker) used to treat high blood pressure, angina, and heart failure by slowing the heart rate and reducing its workload. They are available under various brand names and as a generic drug.
Key Information
- Uses: Bisoprolol is primarily prescribed for hypertension (high blood pressure), angina (chest pain), irregular heart rhythms (arrhythmia), and managing heart failure, particularly in patients recovering from a heart attack.
- Dosage: The typical starting dose for high blood pressure is 5mg once daily, which a doctor may adjust if needed, up to a maximum of 20mg per day.
- Administration: The tablet should be swallowed whole with water, with or without food, preferably at the same time each day. Do not chew, crush, or break it.
- Important Note: Do not stop taking bisoprolol suddenly without consulting your doctor, as abrupt discontinuation can worsen your heart condition and increase the risk of a heart attack or stroke.
