It is important to take Bisopharm 5mg Tablet exactly as directed by your doctor. Do not stop taking this medication without consulting your doctor, as sudden discontinuation may increase heart risks.
Common side effects of Bisopharm 5mg Tablet include fatigue, headache, slow heart rate, dizziness, and nausea. These are usually mild and short-lived. It may also cause shortness of breath or low blood pressure in some people. To reduce the risk of side effects, your doctor may start the medicine at a low dose and gradually increase it. Consult your doctor if the side effects bother you or do not go away.
Before taking Bisopharm 5mg Tablet, let your doctor know if you have any liver problems. It may also not be suitable for people who have a slow heart rate, severe circulation problems, severe heart failure, or low blood pressure. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should also consult their doctor before taking it. Have your blood pressure checked regularly to ensure the efficacy of the treatment. Avoid drinking alcohol as it may increase certain side effects.
