Product introduction
Bisoheart 5 Tablet is a cardioselective beta-blocker built around bisoprolol, prescribed for people managing high blood pressure, angina or ongoing heart failure. It works by calming an overactive heart rhythm so the heart can pump more efficiently with less strain. Doctors often include it as part of a broader heart-care plan alongside diet and lifestyle changes. It is meant for regular, long-term use rather than occasional or as-needed dosing.
Storage: Store below 30°C, in a cool dry place away from direct sunlight.

Frequently asked questions
Is Bisoheart 5 Tablet a water pill (diuretic)?
No. It's a beta-blocker, not a diuretic. It works by calming overactive nerve signals to the heart rather than by removing excess fluid from the body.
What happens if I miss a dose of Bisoheart 5 Tablet?
Take the missed dose as soon as you remember. If it's almost time for your next dose, skip the missed one and continue your normal schedule — don't double up.
How soon will I feel the effect of Bisoheart 5 Tablet?
Blood pressure control may not feel noticeable, but the medicine is still working, so keep taking it as directed. For angina or heart failure, meaningful improvement can take several weeks.
Can I stop Bisoheart 5 Tablet once my blood pressure is under control?
No, don't stop on your own. Suddenly discontinuing a beta-blocker can cause a rebound rise in heart rate or blood pressure and may trigger chest pain. Any change should be tapered under your doctor's supervision.
Can Bisoheart 5 Tablet be taken with other blood pressure medicines?
It is often combined with other heart medicines, but combinations should only be decided by your doctor, since some drugs can interact with beta-blockers and affect heart rate or blood pressure.
