Product Overview
Betaxolol (generic Kerlone)
What is betaxolol? Betaxolol is a prescription beta-blocker used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension), chest pain, and other conditions related to the heart and circulation. It works by blocking certain hormones, which causes your heart and blood vessels to relax and pump blood more slowly. This causes blood flow to improve and decreases your blood pressure. Common side effects include dizziness, lightheadedness, nausea, diarrhea, or tiredness.
Although the brand name for betaxolol, Kerlone, has been discontinued in the U.S., generic forms are still available and are prescribed in the form of an oral tablet.

What is betaxolol (generic Kerlone) used to treat?
Betaxolol is used to treat high blood pressure, chest pain, and other conditions related to the heart and circulation. It is important to note that betaxolol can only control high blood pressure, not cure it.
High blood pressure can damage vital organs, including the heart, brain, and kidneys. Damage to these organs can lead to serious health problems, such as heart attacks, vision loss, or strokes, so proper management of hypertension is critical. It is typically suggested that betaxolol be used along with other lifestyle changes such as a low-fat, low-sodium diet and exercise in order to keep your blood pressure under control.
How does betaxolol (generic Kerlone) work?
Betaxolol belongs to a class of medications that are known as beta-blockers. It works by blocking certain hormones (such as epinephrine) that can cause the heart and other parts of the body to work harder. As a result, your blood vessels relax and your heart beats slower and decreases your blood pressure, which increases the amount of blood and oxygen getting to your heart.

As with all prescription medication, be sure to inform the prescribing doctor about any medical conditions you have been previously diagnosed with and any medication/ supplements you are currently taking before starting treatment with betaxolol. Betaxolol can interact with other forms of medication and substances, causing potentially serious side effects.
