Nebivolol

Uses

Nebivolol is used in the treatment of hypertension (high blood pressure), heart attack, stroke, and migraine.

How it Works

How Nebivolol works Nebivolol is a beta blocker that specifically targets the heart. It functions by slowing down the heart rate and enhancing the heart's efficiency in pumping blood throughout the body.

Side Effects

Common side effects of Nebivolol include headache, fatigue, diarrhea, and dizziness.

Expert Advice

  • Nebivolol lowers blood pressure and facilitates the heart's ability to pump blood throughout the body.
  • Lowering high blood pressure helps prevent stroke and heart attack.
  • It may cause dizziness; if this occurs, rise slowly from a sitting or lying position.
  • Nebivolol can mask symptoms of low blood sugar in diabetic patients; therefore, monitor blood sugar levels regularly.
  • Do not discontinue Nebivolol suddenly, as this may lead to a rapid increase in blood pressure, thereby elevating the risk of heart attack and stroke.

Nebivolol + S-Amlodipine

Nebivolol + Telmisartan

Nebivolol + Valsartan

Cilnidipine + Nebivolol

Frequently asked questions

Yes, Nebivolol may cause fatigue and dizziness. Exercise caution when driving or operating machinery, and consult your doctor if these symptoms occur.
No, Nebivolol is not known to cause weight gain. If weight gain occurs, consult your doctor as it may indicate another underlying issue.
Yes, Nebivolol can be prescribed to patients aged 65 and older, but only under a doctor's guidance. Starting with the lowest dose and gradual adjustments are recommended, with close blood pressure monitoring for those 75 and older.
Caution is advised when taking ibuprofen with Nebivolol, as ibuprofen may raise blood pressure. Regular blood pressure monitoring is recommended, especially if ibuprofen is used long-term.
Yes, due to its lipophilic nature, Nebivolol crosses the blood-brain barrier, making it effective for treating migraines and essential tremors, but it may also increase the risk of central nervous system side effects like lethargy, confusion, and depression.
Nebivolol does not affect blood sugar levels, but it may mask symptoms of low blood sugar, such as rapid heartbeat. Regular monitoring of blood sugar levels is advised.
Nebivolol may lower blood pressure within 1 to 2 weeks, but full benefits may take up to 4 weeks.
Nebivolol should be avoided during pregnancy as it can reduce blood supply to the fetus, potentially leading to growth retardation, miscarriage, or premature labor. Inform your doctor immediately if you become pregnant while taking it.
No, do not stop taking Nebivolol without consulting your doctor, as it manages high blood pressure but does not cure it. Sudden discontinuation can increase the risk of angina, heart attack, or arrhythmias. Your doctor may recommend a gradual dose reduction over 1 to 2 weeks.
Exceeding the recommended dose of Nebivolol may lead to a very slow heartbeat, low blood pressure, fainting, breathing difficulties, or acute heart failure. Contact your doctor immediately if you take too much.
