Description
Indications of Prelizer 2.5 Tablet
Bisoprolol is used to treat hypertension and angina. Heart failure ranges from mild to severe.
Pharmacology of Prelizer 2.5 Tablet
The most selective ß1 blocker is Bisoprolol hemifumarate. It has the highest affinity for the ß1 receptor of any beta-blocker currently on the market. Blocks the ß1 adrenergic receptor in the heart and vascular smooth muscle, lowering heart rate and cardiac output and lowering arterial blood pressure. In patients with non-ß1 selective ß1-blockers, ß-blockers can impact lipid metabolism, however, Bisoprolol does not produce any changes in the cholesterol fraction, including the cardioprotective HDL-cholesterol, over long-term medication.
