Betacor Tablet contains Bisoprolol Fumarate 10 mg, a selective beta-1 adrenergic receptor blocker used primarily to manage cardiovascular conditions. Bisoprolol reduces heart rate, cardiac output, and blood pressure, making it effective in the treatment of hypertension, angina pectoris, and heart failure.

Betacor helps the heart work more efficiently, reduces the risk of heart attacks, and improves exercise tolerance in patients with chronic cardiovascular conditions. Its selective action on beta-1 receptors minimizes respiratory side effects commonly associated with non-selective beta-blockers.

Key Benefits

• Lowers high blood pressure and supports cardiovascular health
• Reduces heart rate and workload on the heart
• Helps prevent angina and improves exercise tolerance
• Supports management of chronic heart failure
• Minimizes beta-2 receptor-related side effects

Indications

Betacor Tablet is indicated for:

• Hypertension (high blood pressure)
• Chronic stable angina pectoris
• Heart failure (as part of standard therapy)
• Patients requiring beta-1 selective adrenergic blockade

Mechanism of Action

Bisoprolol selectively blocks beta-1 adrenergic receptors in the heart, reducing the effects of adrenaline and noradrenaline. This decreases heart rate, cardiac output, and myocardial oxygen demand, leading to lower blood pressure and reduced stress on the heart. Its beta-1 selectivity also reduces the risk of bronchoconstriction and other respiratory side effects.

Dosage and Administration

• Usually administered once daily, or as prescribed by a physician
• Swallow the tablet whole with water, with or without food
• Do not discontinue abruptly without medical supervision, as this may worsen angina or precipitate heart problems
• Adjust dosage based on response and physician guidance

Side Effects

Common side effects:

• Fatigue or tiredness
• Dizziness or lightheadedness
• Slow heart rate (bradycardia)
• Cold hands or feet

Rare side effects:

• Shortness of breath or wheezing in sensitive individuals
• Swelling of extremities
• Depression or sleep disturbances
