Product Description
Product Name: Nebix Tablets 5mg
Product Form: Tablets
Pack Size: 20's
Manufactured By: Highnoon Laboratories
Used For:
- Hypertension (High Blood Pressure): Nebivolol is prescribed to lower blood pressure, which helps reduce the risk of heart attack and stroke.
- Heart Failure: It may also be used in the management of stable heart failure to improve heart function and reduce symptoms.
- Angina Pectoris: Sometimes, nebivolol is used to manage angina (chest pain) by reducing the heart's workload and oxygen demand.
Nebivolol works by blocking beta-1 adrenergic receptors in the heart, leading to:
- A decrease in heart rate and contractility (the strength of the heart's contractions).
- Vasodilation (widening of blood vessels) due to its additional action of increasing nitric oxide production, which can help lower blood pressure.
