CompositionBISOGARD AM TABLET 10 is used to control high blood pressure (hypertension) in adults, especially when a single medicine is not enough. Keeping blood pressure controlled helps lower the risk of heart attack, stroke and kidney problems.
It combines bisoprolol, a beta-blocker that slows the heart rate and eases its workload, and amlodipine, a calcium channel blocker that relaxes the blood vessels. Take it daily at the same time, with or without food, as prescribed. Do not stop it suddenly.
Reducing salt in your diet, staying active within your doctor's advice, keeping to a healthy weight and quitting smoking support better blood pressure control alongside this medicine.
Tell your doctor about any asthma, a very slow heart rate or diabetes before starting, and about other medicines you take. Mild ankle swelling is common; report it if it becomes severe, along with marked breathlessness or dizziness.
