Dystolic Tablet 2.5 mg contains Nebivolol, a modern antihypertensive medicine used to control blood pressure and improve heart function. This lower-strength formulation is particularly useful for patients who require gradual dose adjustment, such as elderly individuals or those newly starting therapy.
Nebivolol stands out among beta-blockers because it not only reduces heart workload but also enhances blood vessel relaxation, leading to better cardiovascular outcomes.

Composition
Each tablet contains:
-
Nebivolol Hydrochloride equivalent to Nebivolol 2.5 mg
The tablet is designed for oral administration and is usually taken once daily.
Mechanism of Action
Nebivolol works through two complementary mechanisms:
-
It selectively blocks beta-1 adrenergic receptors in the heart, reducing heart rate and contractility
-
It stimulates the release of nitric oxide from the vascular endothelium, causing vasodilation
This dual action results in reduced blood pressure, improved blood circulation, and decreased strain on the heart.
