Description
Bisotril-2.5 T Tablet is a fixed-dose combination medicine used for the management of high blood pressure (hypertension) and to protect the heart and blood vessels in high-risk patients.
How it Works / Key Benefits
-
Bisoprolol is a selective beta-1 blocker that slows heart rate and lowers blood pressure by reducing the heart’s workload and output.
-
Telmisartan is an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) that relaxes blood vessels by inhibiting the effects of angiotensin II, thus lowering blood pressure and protecting organs from hypertension-related damage.
-
The combination offers dual-mechanism antihypertensive therapy, suitable for individuals not controlled on a single agent or with cardiovascular risk factors.

Treatment of mild to moderate hypertension

Cardiovascular risk reduction in patients with hypertension, including those with diabetes or chronic kidney disease
