Zebeta (Bisoprolol), a type of medication known as a beta-blocker, is used to treat high blood pressure. Beta-blockers lower blood pressure by decreasing the force and rate of heart contractions, which reduces the heart's demand for oxygen. Zebeta (Bisoprolol) can be used alone or in combination with other high blood pressure medications. Zebeta (Bisoprolol) does not cure high blood pressure; Zebeta (Bisoprolol) merely keeps it under control. Therefore, you must continue taking it even if you are feeling well. Do not stop taking Zebeta (Bisoprolol) unless instructed to do so by your doctor. This is especially important if you have coronary artery disease. Abruptly stopping Zebeta (Bisoprolol) could cause chest pain, heart rhythm problems, and even heart attack. Take Zebeta (Bisoprolol) exactly as prescribed, even if your symptoms have disappeared. Try not to miss any doses. If Zebeta (Bisoprolol) is not taken regularly, your condition may worsen.
Zebeta (Bisoprolol) Side effects cannot be anticipated. If Zebeta (Bisoprolol) side effects develop or change in intensity, inform your doctor as soon as possible. Only your doctor can determine whether it is safe for you to continue taking Zebeta (Bisoprolol).
