Ancor 2.5mg 10Pcs

Indications of Ancor 2.5 Tablet

Bisoprolol is used to treat hypertension and angina. Heart failure ranges from mild to severe.

Pharmacology of Ancor 2.5 Tablet

The most selective ?1 blocker is Bisoprolol Hemifumarate. It has the highest affinity for the ?1 receptor of any beta-blocker currently on the market. Blocks the ?1 adrenergic receptor in the heart and vascular smooth muscle, lowering heart rate and cardiac output and lowering arterial blood pressure. In patients with non-?1 selective ?1-blockers, ?-blockers can impact lipid metabolism, however Bisoprolol does not produce any changes in the cholesterol fraction, including the cardioprotective HDL-cholesterol, over long-term medication.
