Betanorm (5mg) 10 Tablets

Description

Betanorm 5mg Tablets contain Nebivolol and are made by Werrick Pharmaceuticals. Nebivolol slows the heart rate and relaxes blood vessels by releasing nitric oxide. This lowers blood pressure, with fewer effects on tiredness and blood sugar than many older beta blockers. You can order it online from Divine Medicines with home delivery across Lahore.
