Nebivolol HCl is a medication used to treat high blood pressure, also known as hypertension. It works by blocking the action of certain chemicals in the body, called catecholamines, which can cause blood vessels to constrict and increase blood pressure. By blocking these chemicals, nebivolol HCl helps to relax blood vessels and decrease blood pressure.
Nebivolol HCl is typically taken once a day and is available in tablet form. The usual starting dose is 5 mg daily, which can be increased to 10 mg daily after one to two weeks if needed. It is important to follow the dosing instructions provided by your healthcare provider, as well as any other instructions for monitoring your blood pressure or other potential side effects. Some common side effects of nebivolol HCl include headache, dizziness, fatigue, and nausea.
