Nebivolol + Telmisartan is a combination medicine used for managing hypertension, also known as high blood pressure.
Nebivolol belongs to a group of medicines called beta-blockers. It works by blocking beta-1 receptors in the heart, which slows down your heart rate and reduces its workload. This helps to relax and widen your blood vessels, allowing blood to flow more easily.
Telmisartan is an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB). It acts by blocking the action of a natural body substance called angiotensin II. Normally, angiotensin II causes blood vessels to narrow (constrict). By preventing this action, telmisartan helps keep your blood vessels relaxed and open.
