Scientific Evidence
- Bisoprolol, the active ingredient in Prestilol tablets, is a selective beta-blocker that works by blocking the action of certain natural substances in the body, such as epinephrine, on the heart and blood vessels. This results in a lowering of heart rate, blood pressure, and strain on the heart.
- Studies have shown that bisoprolol is effective in reducing blood pressure and improving symptoms of angina. Research published in the American Journal of Cardiovascular Drugs demonstrated the efficacy of bisoprolol in the management of hypertension and its cardiovascular benefits.
Additional Information
- Prestilol tablets have been well-tolerated in clinical trials, with common side effects including fatigue, dizziness, and headache. It is important to follow the prescribed dosage and consult a healthcare provider before starting or stopping this medication.
- Patients should be advised not to discontinue Prestilol abruptly, as this can lead to worsening of symptoms. Regular monitoring of blood pressure and heart rate is recommended during treatment with bisoprolol.
