Why is Zebeta prescribed?

Bisoprolol (Zebeta) is prescribed to treat symptoms of hypertension (high blood pressure). It can be used alone or with other medications to control blood pressure.

What does it do?

Hypertension is a medical condition wherein the force that the blood exerts on the walls of your blood vessels is too high. When hypertension is not treated, it can lead to problems such as heart diseases, heart attacks, stroke, and kidney problems. Incorporating a healthy diet and regular exercise in your lifestyle is beneficial in controlling your blood pressure.

Bisoprolol is classified as a beta-blocker and it works by blocking the effects of Epinephrine (a hormone that raises your blood pressure). It slows down your heart rate, relaxes your blood vessels, and decreases blood pressure.

How should I take it?

Zebeta is available as a 2.5mg tablet. It is intended for oral administration with or without meals. Take it at the same time every day as prescribed and swallow it as a whole. Do not crush, chew, break it in half, or tamper the capsule in any way.

Zebeta does not treat your high blood pressure, it only helps in controlling it. The full effect of Zebeta may take a few weeks before it is evident. Do not stop taking Zebeta even if you feel well. Stopping the medication suddenly may increase your risk for chest pain, irregular heartbeat, or heart attacks. Consult your doctor before you stop taking the medication.

Follow your doctor’s instructions when taking Zebeta to ensure the best results. Only take the dose prescribed by your doctor and do not make alterations in the dosage or frequency when taking the medication.

What if I missed a dose?

When you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember it. However, if the time for your next dose is near, skip the missed dose and take it at your regular time. Do not take two doses at a single time.

What are the special precautions before taking Zebeta?

Inform your doctor if you are allergic to Bisoprolol, any component of Zebeta, or any other medications.

Inform your doctor of your past and present medical history if you have or have had a serious heart problem such as severe heart failure or slow heartbeats, other heart diseases, asthma or lung disease, diabetes, liver or kidney disease, hyperthyroidism, or severe allergies.

If you have severe allergic reactions caused by various substances, taking Bisoprolol may worsen these allergies. Since allergic reactions are treated by epinephrine, regular doses may not be sufficient to treat your symptoms.

Taking Bisoprolol may cause drowsiness. While taking this drug, avoid alcohol intake and doing activities that require your full attention such as driving or operating machinery until you feel it is safe to do so.
