Uses of Nebicard T
Nebicard T tablet is used to treat Hypertension.
Often known as high blood pressure, it is a chronic condition in which the force exerted by the blood against the arterial wall is elevated.
As a result, Hypertension causes heart disease, Arrhythmias, and other cardiovascular issues.
Nebicard works to inhibit this action and relieve Hypertension symptoms.
How Nebicard T works
Nebicard T is a combination of two medications, Nebivolol and Telmisartan, that effectively control elevated blood pressure.
Nebivolol is a blood pressure-lowering medication belonging to the Beta Blocker class.
It improves blood circulation and lowers blood pressure by relaxing blood pressure and lowering the heart rate.
Telmisartan is a drug that blocks Angiotensin Receptors.
It functions by inhibiting the hormone Angiotensin, therefore relaxing the blood arteries. This facilitates more effective blood flow and cardiac pumping.
Together, they are used to treat Hypertensive individuals who cannot be managed with a single medication.
This action decreases your blood pressure and reduces your future chance of having a stroke, heart attack, or other cardiac problems, as well as renal difficulties.
