Description
xWhat Is Actim Tablets 5mg?
Actim Tablets 5mg contain Bisoprolol Fumarate, a cardioselective beta-blocker manufactured by Sami Pharm (Pvt) Ltd. This higher strength is prescribed for high blood pressure and certain heart conditions where the lower 2.5mg dose is not sufficient.
How It Works
Bisoprolol selectively blocks beta-1 receptors in the heart, slowing heart rate and reducing the force of contraction, which lowers blood pressure and reduces the heart's workload.
Dosage
The usual adult dose is one tablet daily, taken in the morning with or without food, or as directed by your doctor. Dosage is often started low and adjusted gradually based on response and tolerability.
Side Effects
Possible side effects include fatigue, dizziness, cold hands and feet, slow heart rate, and low blood pressure. Less commonly, sleep disturbances or gastrointestinal upset may occur.
Precautions
Do not stop taking this medicine abruptly, as sudden discontinuation can worsen heart conditions. Use with caution in people with asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, diabetes, or slow heart rate, and inform your doctor of all other medications before starting treatment.
