Get bisoprolol hydrochlorothiazide (generic for Ziac) online prescriptions for high blood pressure

The combination of bisoprolol and hydrochlorothiazide is a combination medication used for the treatment of high blood pressure. This medication contains two different drugs: bisoprolol (a beta-blocker) and hydrochlorothiazide (a diuretic). These drugs work together to relax blood vessels and lower blood pressure. In addition to medication, you may be prescribed certain lifestyle changes to help control blood pressure (such as exercise and dietary adjustments).

The combination of bisoprolol and hydrochlorothiazide is available in its generic form, or under the brand name Ziac.

The combination of bisoprolol and hydrochlorothiazide is primarily prescribed as a treatment for high blood pressure. This medication may be used alone or in conjunction with other medicines/ therapies to lower blood pressure and prevent further complications such as heart disease, heart attack, and stroke.

High blood pressure is a dangerous – potentially fatal – condition in which the heart is met with too much resistance from blocked or narrowed arteries as it tries to pump blood and oxygen around your body. When not treated, high blood pressure can lead to an array of serious health issues including heart attack, heart failure, stroke, and many more complications. Nearly half of Americans have high blood pressure, and heart disease is the leading cause of death of people in the United States.

Bisoprolol and hydrochlorothiazide are two different drugs used in tandem in a single pill to lower blood pressure.

Bisoprolol belongs to a classification of medications known as beta-blockers. These medications work by blocking the transmission of certain nerve impulses. When stimulated, nerves release a chemical called epinephrine (also known as adrenaline). Adrenaline can cause blood vessels to tighten and narrow. Narrowed blood vessels make it more difficult for blood to be pumped through the body, leading to an increase in blood pressure.

By preventing epinephrine’s effect on blood vessels, bisoprolol keeps blood vessels relaxed and open which reduces blood pressure and minimizes the risk of cardiac conditions such as heart attack, heart failure, and coronary artery disease.

Hydrochlorothiazide is classified as a thiazide diuretic (also known as a water pill). These drugs help your kidneys release extra salt and water into the urine. This lessens the amount of water in the body which decreases the amount of fluid flowing through veins and arteries. This makes it easier for blood and oxygen to flow to the heart – which helps lower blood pressure.

It is important to note that this combination of medications is not a cure for high blood pressure, though it does help control it. Your blood pressure treatment may include prescriptions for other medications, as well as lifestyle adjustments such as dietary changes and increased exercise. Talk to your doctor before starting any of these lifestyle changes to determine the best treatment plan for you.
