Bisnux 5 Tablet contains bisoprolol (5 mg), which functions by:
• Blocking Beta-1 Adrenergic Receptors: Bisoprolol selectively inhibits beta-1 adrenergic receptors located primarily in the cardiac tissue. This action diminishes the effects of endogenous catecholamines like adrenaline on the heart and blood vessels.
• Heart Rate and Blood Pressure Reduction: The blockage of these receptors results in a decrease in heart rate and myocardial contractility, thereby reducing blood pressure and alleviating cardiac workload.
• Organ Protection: By maintaining controlled blood pressure levels over time, bisoprolol mitigates the risk of organ damage due to sustained hypertension.
