Generic For Zebeta®

starting at $27.99

Bisoprolol is in a class of medications called beta-blockers and is commonly prescribed to manage high blood pressure and heart-related conditions, such as chest pain and heart failure. Bisoprolol selectively inhibits beta-1 adrenergic receptors. Bisoprolol works by slowing the heart rate and reducing the workload on the heart, which leads to lower blood pressure and a decreased risk of cardiovascular events.

Bisoprolol is part of a comprehensive treatment plan that may include diet, exercise, and other medications

Bisoprolol is typically taken once daily and well-tolerated

This medication is gradually decreased over time before abruptly discontinuing therapy

Beta-blockers, like bisoprolol, are not recommended as first-line therapy for high blood pressure

Bisoprolol is sometimes used off-label for chronic stable chest pain, atrial fibrillation, heart failure with reduced ejection fraction, and ventricular arrhythmias

Maximum daily dose is up to 20mg once daily

Medication Description

Bisoprolol is a beta-1 selective beta-blocker used to treat several cardiovascular conditions. It is commonly prescribed to help manage high blood pressure (hypertension) and is often part of a broader treatment plan that may include diet, exercise, and other medications.

Bisoprolol works by blocking beta-1 adrenergic receptors, which slows the heart rate, reduces the heart’s workload, and allows the heart to pump more efficiently. This leads to lower blood pressure, decreased risk of heart-related events, and improved oxygen delivery to the heart muscle.

How to Use:

Typical dosage is to take 1 tablet once daily in the morning

May be taken with or without food

Dosage is individualized and typically starts low and is titrated up

Important: Do not abruptly stop taking bisoprolol unless directed by your healthcare provider— the dose is often tapered gradually to prevent rebound effects such as increased heart rate, blood pressure, or risk of cardiac events.

Regular monitoring of heart rate, blood pressure, and kidney function is recommended

Often used in combination with ACE inhibitors, diuretics, or other heart medications

Not considered first-line therapy for hypertension unless combined with other treatments
Bisoprolol Side Effects

Bisoprolol side effects may include: Extreme fatigue, headaches, diarrhea, bradycardia, fainting, sleeplessness, chest pain, shortness of breath, confusion, chills, seizures and sweating.
