How Bisonext T Tablet works

Bisoprolol is a beta blocker which works specifically on the heart to reduce heart rate and lower blood pressure. Telmisartan is an angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB). It works by blocking the hormone angiotensin thereby relaxing blood vessels. Together they allow the blood to flow more smoothly and the heart to pump more efficiently.

Transient increase in BP occurs in stress and anxiety and needs to be treated accordingly.
