Used For:

• Treatment of High Blood Pressure (Hypertension): Bisoprolol helps lower blood pressure by slowing down the heart rate, reducing the heart's workload.
• Heart Failure Management: It is often prescribed to patients with chronic heart failure to improve heart function and reduce symptoms.
• Angina (Chest Pain) Relief: Bisoprolol can help reduce the frequency and severity of angina episodes by decreasing oxygen demand on the heart.

Side Effects:

• Dizziness or Lightheadedness: Common during the initial days of treatment, especially when standing up quickly.
• Fatigue or Weakness: Some patients may feel unusually tired or weak due to the reduced heart rate.
• Bradycardia (Slow Heart Rate): The heart rate may become too slow, which can lead to fainting or extreme fatigue.
• Cold Hands and Feet: Reduced blood circulation can cause coldness in extremities.
• Shortness of Breath: In rare cases, bisoprolol may worsen symptoms of asthma or chronic lung disease.

Precautions:

• Consult Healthcare Provider: Before using bisoprolol, inform your doctor if you have a history of asthma, chronic lung disease, diabetes, or heart problems like bradycardia (slow heart rate).
• Avoid Abrupt Discontinuation: Suddenly stopping bisoprolol can cause serious heart problems like a rebound increase in blood pressure or worsening of angina. Always taper off under a doctor’s guidance.
• Monitor Blood Sugar Levels: In diabetics, bisoprolol may mask the symptoms of low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) such as a rapid heartbeat.
• Alcohol Consumption: Limit alcohol use, as it can increase dizziness or drowsiness while taking bisoprolol.
• Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: Use with caution during pregnancy or breastfeeding, and only if advised by a healthcare professional.
