By reducing the workload on the heart, bisoprolol helps improve heart failure symptoms, including shortness of breath, fatigue, and swelling in the feet and legs. Additionally, it can also be used to manage high blood pressure by reducing the force with which the heart pumps blood, which in turn lowers the blood pressure.
Bisoprolol also helps to reduce the risk of further cardiovascular events, such as heart attacks and strokes, in people who have already had a heart attack. It does this by decreasing the workload on the heart and improving blood flow to the heart muscle.
