my husband was given a new generic Bisoprolol manufactured by Unichem and it is pink were the one he was taking is by Mylan and blue. His blood pressure is high and he feels bad. Can anyone tell me why there is a difference? ## Hello, I believe that your husband may be reacting to one or more of the "inactive" ingredients in Mylan's formulation of Bisoprolol. Certain "inactive" ingredients that may or may not be present in each brand, are actually detrimental to how the drug is metabolized and used by your body. Because everyone is different, your body may respond favorably with one medication and not the other, due to how you feel or based on whatever side effects present themselves. Have you spoken with your doctor about this? Learn More: Bisoprolol Details I hope ...

The doctor prescribed Hexarone for me but the opthalmologist eventually found a residue deposit as a result of the meds on my corneas. The specialist changed the meds to Bisohexal, later on the new Med Aid scheme changed it to Adco-Bisocor. The film on my corneas are getting worse. I don't know whether it is the active ingredient BISOPROLOL - but I need help urgently, my sight is getting 'hazier'. I am 63 years old and had an eye stroke 2 years ago. I cannot find anything on the Internet that addresses this problem of residue on the corneas. ## What are the side effects of Bisocor? ## Patricia, are they certain it's from the medication?

Does anyone know which of the two (Sotolol and Bisoprolol) is less likely to cause side effects such as "numbness and tingling in arms and legs and cold feet" and "excess sweating"? I am 72 years old and had a quad heart bipass 10 weeks ago. On the other hand, which of the two would be more appropriate. ## Based on my observation of each drug's side-effect profile, I would think that "Sotalol" is less likely to cause such symptoms. You can compare the two side-effect profiles using the links below: nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/druginfo/meds/a693010.html#side-effects nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/druginfo/meds/a693024.html#side-effects Regarding which one might be more appropriate, would largely depend on your reasoning for taking either of them in the first place, as th...

I was told I had Arryhythmia after a session in my my heart was racing , in fact fiblilateing.. I was prescribed 10 mgs of propolol daily That was about 10 years ago.. It seemed to do the trick until Dec. last year when I went to emergency with slow heartbeat (below 40) The dosage was cut in half(5 mgs) and since then it often goes down to 40 or less, I take my own blood pressure and pulse at home twice daily. When my pulse goes low I feel tired and lethargic. ## Well yes, when your pulse goes that low, you would feel that way, because the blood isn't moving throughout your body as it should, so you're not getting the oxygen you need.

I have 90 pills of 5/6.25 Ziac tabs. I have a new scrip for 10/6.25 Ziac. My question is can I take two 5/6.25 ziac in place of 1one 10/6.25 ziac until my old scrip is used up?Thanks ## You would be doubling up on the Bisoprolol, which may cause problems, such as severe lowering of your heart rate and hypotension. Learn more Ziac details here. And conversely, it you stop taking this dosage abruptly to try to go back down to the regular dose, you may experience a rebound effect, which might elevate your heart rate and blood pressure. Have you consulted your doctor about doing this? It really would be best if you just switch to the new dosage.
