Each film-coated tablet contains:

• Bisoprolol Fumarate IP: 2.5 mg
• Excipients: q.s.

How it works: Bisoprolol selectively blocks beta-1 adrenergic receptors in the heart, reducing heart rate, cardiac output, and myocardial oxygen demand. This selective action results in effective blood pressure control while minimizing effects on pulmonary beta-2 receptors, making it safer for patients with respiratory conditions.

BISOZIO 2.5mg is indicated for the treatment of:

• Hypertension (High Blood Pressure): Both essential and secondary hypertension
• Stable Chronic Heart Failure: In combination therapy for reduced ejection fraction
• Angina Pectoris: To prevent chest pain and improve exercise tolerance
• Cardiac Arrhythmias: As recommended by physicians
• Post-Myocardial Infarction Care: For secondary prevention

What is High Blood Pressure? Hypertension occurs when the force of blood pushing against artery walls is consistently too high (130/80 mmHg or higher). Often called the "silent killer," high blood pressure typically has no symptoms but can cause serious damage to your heart, brain, kidneys, and other organs.

Common Risk Factors: Age, family history, obesity, lack of physical activity, high sodium diet, excessive alcohol consumption, smoking, diabetes, and chronic stress all contribute to hypertension development.

Why Treatment Matters: Untreated hypertension significantly increases your risk of heart attack, stroke, heart failure, kidney disease, and vision problems. Even small reductions in blood pressure can dramatically lower these risks.
