CompositionBISOFIG T 5 TABLET 10 is used to manage high blood pressure (hypertension), chest pain (angina), and heart failure. By controlling blood pressure and heart rate together, it helps lower the risk of heart attack, stroke, and kidney problems, particularly in people at high risk.
It is a combination medicine belonging to the groups of medicines called angiotensin receptor blockers and beta-blockers. One ingredient relaxes and widens the blood vessels, while the other slows the heart rate and reduces its workload. Take it at the same time each day, and do not stop it suddenly, as stopping a beta-blocker abruptly can worsen heart problems.
Healthy lifestyle changes support treatment alongside this medicine. These include reducing salt in your diet, staying active as advised, maintaining a healthy weight, and limiting alcohol.
Before taking this medicine, tell your doctor if you have asthma or breathing problems, a slow heart rate, kidney problems, or diabetes, or are taking other medicines, and whether you are pregnant or planning pregnancy, as it is not suitable in pregnancy. Stand up slowly to reduce dizziness, and your doctor may check your kidney function and blood salts.
