Description

Description

Atbeta (5mg) is a prescription beta-blocker medicine containing Bisoprolol, used primarily to manage high blood pressure, angina, and other heart-related conditions. It works by slowing the heart rate and reducing the heart’s workload, which helps maintain stable blood pressure and improves overall cardiovascular efficiency. Atbeta is often part of a long-term treatment plan aimed at reducing the risk of heart attack, stroke, and other complications linked to cardiovascular disease. Each pack contains 14 tablets, manufactured under pharmaceutical quality standards.

Ingredients

Each tablet of Atbeta contains:

• Bisoprolol Fumarate – 5mg

Bisoprolol is a selective beta-1 blocker that targets receptors in the heart, reducing heart rate and the force of heart muscle contractions. This lowers the heart’s oxygen demand and helps regulate blood pressure over time.

Dosage Form

Oral tablet, available in a pack of 14 tablets.

Uses

Atbeta is mainly prescribed for managing hypertension (high blood pressure) and chronic stable angina caused by reduced blood flow to the heart. It may also be used to help manage certain irregular heart rhythms and, in some cases, as part of treatment following a heart attack. It is sometimes combined with other medicines, such as diuretics, to enhance blood pressure control.

How to Use

Take Atbeta exactly as prescribed by your doctor, usually once daily, preferably in the morning, with or without food. Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water and try to take it at the same time each day to maintain steady levels in the body. Do not stop taking this medicine suddenly, even if you feel well, as abrupt discontinuation can worsen heart-related symptoms; your doctor may recommend gradually reducing the dose if treatment needs to stop.

Side Effects

Common side effects may include:

• Dizziness or fatigue
• Slow heart rate
• Cold hands or feet
• Headache
• Low blood pressure

Less common but serious effects may include shortness of breath, significant swelling, or fainting. Seek medical attention immediately if these occur.

Pregnancy & Breastfeeding

Atbeta should only be used during pregnancy or breastfeeding under close medical supervision, as its effects on a developing baby or nursing infant require careful evaluation. Women who are pregnant, planning pregnancy, or nursing should discuss safer alternatives with their doctor.

Storage Instructions

Store Atbeta tablets at room temperature, away from direct heat, moisture, and sunlight. Keep in the original packaging, out of reach of children, and do not use past the expiry date printed on the pack.
