Mode of Action
How Does It Work?
Hydrochlorothiazide is a diuretic that affects the kidney tubular mechanism, increasing chloride and sodium excretion. While the exact mechanism of bisoprolol has not been completely established, decreased cardiac activity and inhibition of renin release by the kidneys are considered factors involved in lowering blood pressure....

Interactions
Interactions with other medicines
- Concomitant use of other antihypertensive agents may potentiate the action of Bisomax tablets
- Co-administration of catecholamine depleting medicine like reserpine or guanethidine with bisoprolol may produce an excessive reduction of sympathetic activity
- Concomitant use of digitalis glycoside and beta-blocker may slow atrioventricular conduction and decrease heart rate thereby, increasing the risk of bradycardia
- Concurrent use of rifampin may increase the metabolic clearance rate of bisoprolol, shortening its elimination half-life
- Barbiturates or narcotics upon administration with thiazide diuretics may lead to potentiation of orthostatic hypotension
- Absorption of hydrochlorothiazide is imapired when taken with cholestyramine and colestipol resins
- Corticosteroids, when taken with diuretics, may intensify the electrolyte depletion
- Concomitant use of skeletal muscle relaxants with hydrochlorothiazide may increase the responsiveness to the muscle relaxants
- Diuretics, when given with lithium, reduce the renal clearance of lithium, thereby adding to the risk of lithium toxicity
- Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agents minimize the effect of thiazide diuretics
