Bisnux 2.5 Tablet is primarily used for the management of high blood pressure, known medically as hypertension. It belongs to a class of medicines called beta-blockers, which slow the heart rate and reduce the force of the heart's contractions.
• Management of high blood pressure (hypertension)
• Control of heart failure
• Prevention of angina (chest pain)
• Regulation of irregular heart rhythms, particularly supraventricular tachycardia
• Prevention of migraines

Common side effects of this tablet include:
• Fatigue
• Dizziness
• Bradycardia (slow heart rate)
• Cold extremities
Bisnux 2.5 Tablet contains bisoprolol (2.5 mg), which acts in the body by:
• Beta1-Selective Blockade: Bisoprolol selectively inhibits beta1-adrenergic receptors in the heart, reducing sympathetic nervous system stimulation.
• Heart Rate Reduction: By blocking beta1 receptors in the sinoatrial (SA) node, it slows down heart rate (negative chronotropic effect), decreasing cardiac workload.
• Blood Pressure Lowering: Inhibits catecholamine-induced vasoconstriction, leading to reduced peripheral vascular resistance and lower blood pressure.
• Decreased Myocardial Contractility: Reduces the force of heart contractions (negative inotropic effect), lowering oxygen consumption by the heart.
• Reduced Oxygen Demand: By decreasing heart rate, blood pressure, and contractility, it lessens myocardial oxygen demand, beneficial in conditions like angina and heart failure.
