Mechanism Of Action Of Nebivolol

  • Blocks beta-adrenergic stimulation, beta receptors stimulate the heart and increase its rate, force of contraction & conductivity
  • Beta-blocker protects the heart from too much activity. This medicine works by affecting the body’s response to some nerve impulses, especially in the heart.
  • As a result, it slows down the heart rate and makes the heart more efficient at pumping blood around the body.
  • Nebivolol also facilitates NO release which helps in reducing peripheral vascular resistance and significantly increases stroke volume

 

Therapeutic Indications Of Nebilet 5 Mg Tablets

  • Hypertension: High blood pressure is a common condition in which the long-term force of the blood against your artery walls is high enough that it may eventually cause health problems, such as heart disease.
  • Lowering blood pressure reduces the risk of fatal and nonfatal cardiovascular events, primarily strokes and myocardial infarctions

  • You can take it with or without food.
  • If you want to increase the dose for further reduction in blood pressure wait 2 weeks interval.

Warnings & Special Precautions while Taking Nebilet 5 Mg Tablets

  • Acute exacerbation of coronary artery disease upon cessation of therapy: Do not abruptly discontinue.
  • Diabetes: Monitor glucose as β-blockers may mask symptoms of hypoglycemia.
  • Tell your doctor if you are taking any of the following medicines:
  1. CYP2D6 enzyme inhibitors (fluoxetine, bupropion, paroxetine, amiodarone) may increase Nebivolol levels.
  2. Reserpine or clonidine may produce an excessive reduction of sympathetic activity.
  3. Both digitalis glycosides (digoxin, digitoxin) and β-blockers slow atrioventricular conduction and decrease heart rate. Concomitant use can increase the risk of bradycardia.
  4. Verapamil- or diltiazem-type calcium channel blockers may cause excessive reductions in heart rate, blood pressure, and cardiac contractility.
  5. Antacids (e.g. cimetidine), are used to treat excessive stomach acid. If you are being treated for excessive stomach acid, you should take nebivolol during a meal, and the antacid drug between meals.
  6. Asthma medications, medications for a blocked nose (e.g. pseudoephedrine) or certain eye disorders such as glaucoma (increased pressure in the eye) or dilation of the pupil.
