Description

Bisolol is a beta-blocker drug used to lower blood pressure in people with hypertension.

Composition

Each Bisolol 5 mg  film-coated tablet contains:  

• Bisoprolol fumarate : 5 mg.
• Excipients: S.Q. for one film-coated tablet.

Indications

Bisolol is indicated in the management of hypertension. It may be used alone or in combination with other antihypertensive agents.

Dosage & Administration:

The dose must be individualized to the need of the patient. The usual starting dose is one tablet of Bisolol 5 mg once daily. In some patients (bronchospastic patients) 2.5 mg/day may be an appropriate starting dose.

If the 5-mg dose is inadequate, the dose may  be increased to 10 mg/day and then, if needed, to 20 mg once daily. In patients with impaired renal or hepatic function, the initial daily dose should be 2.5 mg with caution used in titrating the dose upward.
