Concor Cor 2.5 Mg 30 Tablets

Concor Cor 2.5 mg 30 Tablets

Description:

Concor Cor 2.5 mg is a prescription cardiovascular medicine containing bisoprolol fumarate, a selective beta-1 adrenergic blocker (beta-blocker) used for the long-term management of high blood pressure and certain heart conditions. By slowing the heart rate and reducing the force of heart contractions, it lowers blood pressure, decreases oxygen demand of the heart, and helps protect the heart and blood vessels. Concor Cor 2.5 mg film-coated tablets are typically used as a low starting dose or maintenance dose in adults under medical supervision as part of comprehensive cardiovascular risk management.

Indications:

• Treatment of essential hypertension (high blood pressure) in adults.
• Management of stable coronary artery disease, including patients with a history of angina or myocardial ischemia, as prescribed by a cardiologist.
• Reduction of cardiac workload and oxygen consumption in patients with cardiovascular disease.
• May be used as part of combination therapy with other antihypertensives (e.g., diuretics, ACE inhibitors, calcium channel blockers) as directed by the physician.

Active Ingredients / Key Components:

• Bisoprolol fumarate – 2.5 mg per film-coated tablet.
• Excipients (tablet core and coating) – include standard pharmaceutical excipients such as fillers, binders, and coating agents (exact excipient list and concentrations , please check the product leaflet or the manufacturer’s official website; please refer to the official package leaflet for full details).

Dosage & Administration / How to Use:

• Concor Cor 2.5 mg should always be used exactly as prescribed by your doctor. Do not change the dose or stop the medicine without medical advice.
• Typical adult dose: Often started at 2.5 mg once daily in certain patients, with possible gradual adjustment based on clinical response and tolerance. The exact dose regimen is determined individually by the physician.
• Administration: Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water. Do not crush or chew the film-coated tablet.
• Timing: Usually taken once daily, preferably at the same time each day, with or without food.
• If you miss a dose: Take it as soon as you remember on the same day. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular schedule. Do not take a double dose to make up for a forgotten tablet.
• Duration of use: Long-term treatment. Do not abruptly discontinue bisoprolol, as sudden withdrawal may worsen heart disease or cause rebound hypertension. Dose reduction should be gradual under medical supervision.

Clinical Benefits:

• Helps lower high blood pressure, reducing the risk of stroke, heart attack, and other cardiovascular complications.
• Decreases heart rate and contractility, reducing cardiac workload and myocardial oxygen consumption.
• Supports better control of symptoms in patients with coronary artery disease, such as chest discomfort related to exertion (as directed by a cardiologist).
• Contributes to long-term protection of the heart and blood vessels when used as part of a comprehensive cardiovascular treatment plan including lifestyle changes and other medications.

Warnings & Contraindications:

• Contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to bisoprolol fumarate or any component of the formulation.
• Contraindicated in second- or third-degree atrioventricular (AV) heart block (without a pacemaker), sick sinus syndrome, or severe sinus bradycardia.
• Contraindicated in acute decompensated congestive heart failure, cardiogenic shock, or severe heart failure not yet stabilized.
• Use with extreme caution or avoid in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or bronchial asthma, as beta-blockers may worsen bronchospasm.
• Use with caution in patients with peripheral arterial disease or severe peripheral circulatory disorders, as symptoms may be aggravated.
• Use with caution in patients with renal impairment or hepatic impairment; dose adjustment and close monitoring may be required.
• May mask signs of hypoglycemia (such as rapid heartbeat) in diabetic patients; blood glucose should be monitored regularly.
• May mask signs of hyperthyroidism; abrupt withdrawal in hyperthyroid patients should be avoided.
• Consult your doctor before use if you are pregnant, planning pregnancy, or breastfeeding. Bisoprolol should only be used if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk.
• Inform your doctor about all other medicines you are taking, especially other antihypertensives, antiarrhythmics, calcium channel blockers (e.g., verapamil, diltiazem), digitalis glycosides, insulin or oral antidiabetics, and CNS depressants.
• Not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease without medical supervision; it is a prescription-only antihypertensive medicine.
• Keep out of reach of children.
• Do not drive or operate machinery if you feel dizzy, fatigued, or experience visual disturbances while taking this medicine.

Side Effects:

• Common side effects may include fatigue, dizziness, headache, cold hands and feet, slow heart rate (bradycardia), and gastrointestinal complaints such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, or constipation.
• Less common side effects can include sleep disturbances, depression, shortness of breath, muscle weakness, or reduced exercise tolerance.
• Serious side effects (seek immediate medical attention): severe bradycardia, worsening heart failure symptoms (such as swelling of legs, sudden weight gain, increasing shortness of breath), severe dizziness or fainting, bronchospasm or difficulty breathing, or signs of severe allergic reaction (rash, swelling of face or throat, severe itching, trouble breathing).
