Bisohexal (5mg tablet x 30)

Bisohexal is a medication available in the form of a 5mg tablet. The active ingredient in Bisohexal is bisoprolol, which belongs to a class of drugs called beta-blockers. It is primarily used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension) and certain heart conditions, such as angina (chest pain) and heart failure.

Bisohexal works by blocking the action of certain chemicals in the body, such as adrenaline, which can increase heart rate and blood pressure. By reducing the effects of these chemicals, Bisohexal helps to relax blood vessels, lower blood pressure, and improve the efficiency of the heart’s pumping action.

Usage Information: Bisohexal should be taken as prescribed by your healthcare provider. The recommended dose for hypertension is usually 5mg once daily, which may be increased to 10mg per day if necessary. For other heart conditions, the dosage may vary, and your doctor will determine the appropriate dose for you. It is important to follow your doctor’s instructions and not exceed the prescribed dosage.

Bisohexal tablets are usually taken orally with or without food, swallowed whole with a glass of water. It is important to take the medication regularly and at the same time each day for the best results. If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember, unless it is close to the time for your next dose. In that case, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular dosing schedule.

Side Effects: Like all medications, Bisohexal can cause side effects, although not everyone experiences them. Common side effects may include:

1. Fatigue or tiredness
2. Dizziness or lightheadedness
3. Headache
4. Slow heart rate
5. Cold hands or feet
6. Upset stomach or diarrhea
7. Nausea

If you experience any severe or persistent side effects, such as difficulty breathing, chest pain, swelling of the hands or feet, or unusual bleeding or bruising, it is important to seek medical attention immediately.

It is essential to inform your doctor about any other medications you are taking, as certain drugs can interact with Bisohexal and affect its effectiveness or increase the risk of side effects. It is also important to let your doctor know about any pre-existing medical conditions or allergies before starting treatment with Bisohexal.
