How Does It Work?

• Bisocar Ht Tablet works by the combined action of its main components – Bisoprolol and Hydrochlorothiazide.
• Bisoprolol works by blocking certain chemicals in the body that affect the heart and blood vessels, thus reducing the heart rate and makes it easier for your heart to pump blood around your body.
• Hydrochlorothiazide works by helping the body get rid of extra fluid or water through urine thus eventually lowering your blood pressure.
