What Is Bisoprolol Used For?

Bisoprolol prescription medication, marketed under the brand name Zebeta, is a synthetic drug. Bisoprolol, like atenolol (Tenormin), metoprolol (Lopressor, Toprol), nadolol (Corgard), and nebivolol (Bystolic), belongs to a class of medications known as beta₁-selective (cardioselective) adrenoceptor blocking agent, or beta blockers - slightly more selective than carvedilol (Coreg) and propranolol (Inderal). While bisoprolol's mechanism of action is not fully understood, it likely involves a combination of interfering with renin release, reduced cardiac output, and diminished sympathetic activity in the nervous system. The end effect of the activity of bisoprolol is a reduction in heart rate during both exercise and rest. Bisoprolol is combined with the drug hydrochlorothiazide (Microzide) to form Ziac.

Bisoprolol - Dosage and Cost

The dosage of bisoprolol used depends on the specific needs and health characteristics of the patient and the judgement of the prescribing medical provider. Many patients are started on bisoprolol 5 mg once per day which can be titrated as high as bisoprolol 10 mg or bisoprolol 20 mg daily if necessary. Taken orally, bisoprolol tablets absorb with or without food and achieve peak plasma concentration within four hours. In normal people, bisoprolol medication has a half life of up to twelve hours and excretion occurs mostly via the urine. Bisoprolol is a moderately affordable medication, costing under 40 cents per bisoprolol 5 mg tablet at many pharmacies in the United States - a cost that may be covered under some insurance plans. Bisoprolol coupons can also be found online or through the manufacturer at times.

Bisoprolol should be used carefully in people with liver or kidney disorders or bronchospastic conditions.
