How it works?

Uses of Nebivolol & S-Amlodipine Tablets

This Tablets is indicated for the treatment of essential hypertension and chronic stable angina. This combination medication effectively lowers blood pressure and improves blood flow, addressing two major cardiovascular conditions simultaneously. Nebivolol, a beta-blocker, helps to reduce the heart rate and decrease the heart’s oxygen demand, while S-Amlodipine, a calcium channel blocker, works by relaxing and widening blood vessels. This dual action not only helps manage high blood pressure but also alleviates symptoms of angina, such as chest pain and discomfort.
The combination of this tablets ensures better heart function and enhances overall blood circulation, reducing strain on the heart and preventing further complications. This dual approach significantly contributes to improved quality of life for patients with these conditions.

Dosages administration of Nebivolol & S-Amlodipine Tablets

Hypertension and Chronic Stable Angina

Adults: The usual dosage is one Nebivolol & S-Amlodipine tablet 5mg/5mg, with or without food, once a day. The maximum daily dose should not exceed 5mg/10mg once daily.

Elderly: In patients over 65 years of age, the recommended starting dose is one 2.5mg/5mg tablet daily. The physician may increase the dose to 5mg/10mg if needed.

Patients with renal Impairment: No dosage adjustment is required in patients with mild to moderate renal impairment. In patients with severe renal impairment (ClCr < 30 mL/min) the recommended starting dose is 2.5mg/5mg once daily. If needed, upward titration should be performed cautiously.

Patients with hepatic disease: In patients with moderate hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh B), the recommended starting dose is 2.5mg/5mg once daily. If needed, the dosage should be upward titrated cautiously. Nebivolol and Amlodipine have not been studied in patients with severe hepatic impairment and therefore the fixed dose combination of Nebivolol plus Amlodipine is not recommended in patients with this condition.

Children and Adolescents: No studies have been conducted in children and adolescents. Therefore, use in children and adolescents is not recommended.

CYP2D6 Polymorphism: Dose adjustments are not necessary for patients who are CYP2D6 poor metabolizers. The clinical effect and safety profile observed in poor metabolizers were similar to those of extensive metabolizers.

Data on adverse reactions in CHF patients are available from one placebo-controlled clinical trial involving 1067 patients taking nebivolol and 1061 patients taking placebo. In this study, a total of 449 nebivolol patients (42.1%) reported at least possibly causally related adverse reactions compared to 334 placebo patients (31.5%). The most commonly reported adverse reactions in nebivolol patients were bradycardia and dizziness, both occurring in approximately 11% of patients. The corresponding frequencies among placebo patients were approximately 2% and 7%, respectively.

Amlodipine:

The most commonly reported adverse reactions during treatment are somnolence, dizziness, headache, palpitations, flushing, abdominal pain, nausea, ankle swelling, oedema and fatigue.
The following adverse reactions have been observed and reported during treatment with amlodipine with the following frequencies: Very common (≥1/10); common (≥1/100 to <1/10); uncommon (≥1/1,000 to <1/100); rare (≥1/10,000 to <1/1,000); very rare (<1/10,000); not known (cannot be estimated from the available data).

Precautions of Nebivolol & S-Amlodipine Tablets

Nebivolol:
Anaesthesia: Continuation of beta-blockade reduces the risk of arrhythmias during induction and intubation. Exercise caution with certain anesthetics that cause myocardial depression.

Avoid using beta-adrenergic antagonists in patients with untreated congestive heart failure (CHF). Gradually discontinue beta-adrenergic antagonists in patients with ischemic heart disease. Avoid combining nebivolol with calcium channel antagonists like verapamil and diltiazem.

Metabolic/Endocrinological: does not affect glucose levels in diabetic patients.

Use beta-adrenergic antagonists with caution in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disorders, as they may aggravate airway constriction.

Amlodipine:
Researchers have not established the safety and efficacy of amlodipine in hypertensive crises.

Treat patients with heart failure with caution, as they may experience complications. Use calcium channel blockers, including amlodipine, cautiously in patients with congestive heart failure.

In patients with hepatic impairment, the prolonged half-life of amlodipine and higher AUC values occur, but clinicians have not established dosage recommendations.

Elderly patients: In the elderly increase of the dosage should take place with.

Patients with renal impairment can use amlodipine at normal doses, as changes in amlodipine plasma concentrations do not correlate with the degree of renal impairment.
