About Bisolol H 5mg/6.25mg Tablet

BISOPROLOL+HYDROCHLOROTHIAZIDE is a combination of blood pressure-lowering medicine, primarily used to treat high blood pressure. BISOPROLOL+HYDROCHLOROTHIAZIDE contains bisoprolol (beta-blockers) and Hydrochlorothiazide (diuretics or water pills) which collectively lower blood pressure. Hypertension or high blood pressure is a chronic condition in which the force exerted by the blood against the artery wall is high. As a result, it leads to heart diseases, irregular heartbeat, and other complications.

BISOPROLOL+HYDROCHLOROTHIAZIDE contains two medicines: bisoprolol and hydrochlorothiazide. Bisoprolol (beta-blocker) helps in relaxing our blood vessels by blocking the action of certain natural substances in your body. This lowers your blood pressure and helps in reducing your risk of having a stroke, a heart attack, other heart problems, or kidney problems in the future. This medicine needs to be taken regularly to be effective. Hydrochlorothiazide (diuretic) works by increasing the amount of urine passed out from the kidneys. It effectively reduces excess fluid overload in the body and treats edema (swelling) associated with heart, liver, kidney, or lung disease. This reduces the heart's workload and makes the heart more efficient at pumping blood throughout the body. Thus, collectively, both help lower high blood pressure, reducing heart attack, or stroke chances.
