Corbis 5mg Tablets are a combination medication primarily used for the treatment of hypertension (high blood pressure) and certain heart conditions. Each package typically contains 30 tablets.
Key Ingredients
Corbis 5mg contains:
- Bisoprolol: A selective beta-1 blocker that reduces heart rate and helps relax blood vessels, making it easier for the heart to pump blood.
- Telmisartan: An angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB) that helps relax blood vessels and lowers blood pressure.
Indications
Corbis 5mg is indicated for:
- Hypertension: Effective in lowering high blood pressure, which helps reduce the risk of stroke, heart attack, and kidney problems.
- Angina: May also be used to relieve chest pain caused by reduced blood flow to the heart.
- Heart Rhythm Disorders: Helps stabilize heart rhythms, particularly in cases of atrial fibrillation.
Dosage and Administration
- Recommended Dosage: The typical starting dose is 5 mg once daily, but this may be adjusted based on the patient's response and doctor's advice.
- Administration: Can be taken with or without food, but it is advisable to take it at the same time each day for consistent results. Swallow the tablet whole with water; do not chew or crush.
