Pharmacological action
NIPERTEN – selective beta1-blocker, without its own sympathomimetic activity, does not have a membrane-stabilizing effect. Reduces blood plasma renin activity, reduces myocardial oxygen demand, reduces heart rate (at rest and during exercise). It has hypotensive, antiarrhythmic and antianginal effects. Blocking in low doses 1-adrenergic receptors of the heart, reduces catecholamine-stimulated cAMP production from ATP, reduces the intracellular current of calcium ions, has a negative chrono-, dromo-, batmo- and inotropic effect, reduces AV conductivity and excitability.
When the therapeutic dose is exceeded, it has a beta2-blocking effect.
At the beginning of the use of the drug in the first 24 hours, OPSS increases (as a result of a reciprocal increase in the activity of -adrenoreceptors and the elimination of stimulation of 2-adrenoreceptors), after 1-3 days it returns to its original level, and decreases with prolonged use. The antihypertensive effect is associated with a decrease in minute blood volume, sympathetic stimulation of peripheral vessels, restoration of sensitivity in response to a decrease in blood pressure and an effect on the central nervous system. With arterial hypertension, the therapeutic effect occurs in 2-5 days, stable action is observed after 1-2 months.
The antianginal effect is due to a decrease in myocardial oxygen demand as a result of a decrease in heart rate and a decrease in myocardial contractility, lengthening of diastole, and improvement of myocardial perfusion. By increasing the final diastolic pressure in the left ventricle and increasing the stretching of the muscle fibers of the ventricles, oxygen demand may increase, especially in patients with chronic heart failure.
Antiarrhythmic effect is due to the elimination of arrhythmogenic factors (tachycardia, increased activity of the sympathetic nervous system, increased content of cAMP, arterial hypertension), a decrease in the rate of spontaneous excitation of sinus and ectopic pacemakers, and a slowdown in AV conduction (mainly in antegrade and, to a lesser extent, in the retrograde direction through the AV node) and along additional paths.
When used in medium therapeutic doses, unlike non-selective beta-blockers, it has a less pronounced effect on organs containing 2-adrenergic receptors (pancreas, skeletal muscle, smooth muscles of the peripheral arteries, bronchi and uterus), and does not affect carbohydrate metabolism causes a delay of sodium ions in the body, the severity of the atherogenic effect does not differ from the action of propranolol.

With caution, the drug should be used in case of liver failure, chronic renal failure, myasthenia gravis, thyrotoxicosis, diabetes mellitus, AV blockade of the first degree, depression (including history), psoriasis, allergic reactions (history), in elderly patients.
Special instructions
The condition of patients receiving Niperten should be monitored: measurement of heart rate and blood pressure (daily, at the beginning of treatment, then 1 time every 3-4 months), ECG, determination of blood glucose in patients with diabetes mellitus (1 time in 4-5 months). In elderly patients, it is recommended to monitor renal function (1 time in 4-5 months). The patient should be trained in the method of calculating heart rate and instructed on the need for medical consultation with a heart rate of less than 50 beats / min.
Before starting treatment, it is recommended to study the function of external respiration in patients with a history of bronchopulmonary burden.
In approximately 20% of patients with angina pectoris, beta-blockers are ineffective. The main causes are severe coronary atherosclerosis with a low threshold for ischemia (heart rate less than 100 beats / min) and an increased final diastolic volume of the left ventricle, which violates the subendocardial blood flow.
In smokers, the effectiveness of beta-blockers is lower.
Patients using contact lenses should consider that tear fluid production may be reduced during treatment.
When using the drug in patients with pheochromocytoma, there is a risk of developing paradoxical arterial hypertension (if effective alpha-adrenoblockade is not previously achieved).
With thyrotoxicosis, bisoprolol may mask certain clinical signs of thyrotoxicosis (e.g., tachycardia). Abrupt withdrawal in patients with thyrotoxicosis is contraindicated, since symptoms may intensify.
With diabetes, it can mask tachycardia caused by hypoglycemia. Unlike non-selective beta-blockers, it practically does not enhance insulin-induced hypoglycemia and does not delay the restoration of blood glucose concentrations to normal levels.
With the simultaneous use of clonidine, its administration can be stopped only a few days after the withdrawal of the drug Niperten.
It is possible to increase the severity of the hypersensitivity reaction and the lack of effect of the usual doses of epinephrine against the background of a burdened allergic history.
If it is necessary to carry out planned surgical treatment, drug withdrawal is carried out 48 hours before the start of general anesthesia. If the patient took the drug before surgery, he should choose a drug for general anesthesia with a minimally negative inotropic effect.
Reciprocal vagus nerve activation can be eliminated iv by administration of atropine (1-2 mg).
Medicines that reduce the reserves of catecholamines (including reserpine) can enhance the effect of beta-blockers, therefore, patients receiving such combinations of drugs, requires constant monitoring by a doctor to detect a pronounced decrease in blood pressure or bradycardia.
Patients with bronchospastic diseases can be prescribed cardioselective beta-blockers in case of intolerance and / or ineffectiveness of other antihypertensive drugs. An overdose is dangerous for the development of bronchospasm.
In the case of elderly patients with increasing bradycardia (less than 50 beats / min), a marked decrease in blood pressure (systolic blood pressure below 100 mmHg), AV block, it is necessary to reduce the dose or stop treatment.
It is recommended that therapy be discontinued if depression develops.
Do not abruptly interrupt treatment because of the danger of withdrawal syndrome (severe arrhythmia and myocardial infarction). Cancellation is carried out gradually, reducing the dose for 2 weeks or more (reduce the dose by 25% in 3-4 days).
Niperten should be discontinued before examining the blood and urine levels of catecholamines, normetanephrine and vanillinindic acid, and antinuclear antibody titers.
Influence on the ability to drive vehicles and control mechanisms
The question of the possibility of engaging in potentially hazardous activities that require increased attention and speed of psychomotor reactions should be decided only after assessing the patient’s individual reaction to the drug (especially at the beginning of treatment, due to the possibility of dizziness )
Composition
Active ingredients: bisoprolol fumarate (2: 1) 2.5 mg.
Excipients: microcrystalline cellulose, sodium carboxymethyl starch, povidone, anhydrous colloidal silicon dioxide, magnesium stearate.
The composition of the film membrane: hypromellose, macrogol, titanium dioxide, talc.
Dosage and administration
The drug is taken orally, in the morning on an empty stomach, without chewing, once.
Arterial hypertension and coronary heart disease: prevention of angina attacks
The recommended dose is 5 mg 1 time / day. If necessary, increase the dose to 10 mg 1 time / day. The maximum daily dose is 20 mg.
In patients with impaired renal function with CC less than 20 ml / min, or with severe impaired liver function, the maximum daily dose is 10 mg.
Dose adjustment in elderly patients is not required.
Chronic heart failure
The start of treatment for chronic heart failure with Niperten requires a special dose selection period. The prerequisites for initiating therapy are as follows:
– chronic heart failure without signs of exacerbation in the previous 6 weeks
– almost unchanged basic therapy in the previous 2 weeks
– treatment with optimal doses of ACE inhibitors (and vasodilators, in case of intolerance to ACE inhibitors), diuretics and , if necessary, cardiac glycosides.
Treatment is prescribed in accordance with the specified dose selection scheme. An individual patient response to the prescribed therapy is possible, i.e. the dose can be increased only if the previous dose is well tolerated. 1 week 1.25 mg 1/2 tablet 2.5 mg 1 time / day.
2 weeks 2.5 mg 1 time / day.
3 weeks 3.75 mg 1 time / day.
4-7 week 5 mg 1 time / day.
8-11 week 7.5 mg 1 time / day.
12 weeks and then 10 mg 1 time / day. as maintenance therapy
The maximum recommended dose of Niperten is 10 mg 1 time / day. After starting treatment with the drug at a dose of 1.25 mg (1/2 tablet 2.5 mg), the patient should be observed for about 4 hours (control of heart rate, blood pressure, conduction disturbances on the ECG, symptoms of worsening chronic heart failure).
During the dose selection period or after it, a temporary deterioration in the course of chronic heart failure, fluid retention, arterial hypotension, or bradycardia may occur. In this case, it is recommended, first of all, to pay attention to the selection of the dose of concomitant basic therapy (to optimize the dose of the diuretic and / or ACE inhibitor), before lowering the dose of the Niperten drug. Treatment with the drug should be interrupted only if absolutely necessary.
After stabilization of the patient’s condition, titration should be repeated or treatment should be continued.

Drug Interactions
Allergens used for immunotherapy or allergen extracts for skin tests increase the risk of severe systemic allergic reactions or anaphylaxis in patients receiving bisoprolol.
Iodine-containing radiopaque agents for iv administration increase the risk of anaphylactic reactions.
Phenytoin with iv administration, funds for inhalation anesthesia (hydrocarbon derivatives) increase the severity of the cardio-depressant effect of bisoprolol and the likelihood of a decrease in blood pressure.
Niperten changes the effectiveness of insulin and hypoglycemic agents for oral administration, masks the symptoms of developing hypoglycemia (tachycardia, increased blood pressure).
Bisoprolol reduces the clearance of lidocaine and xanthines (except theophylline) and increases their concentration in blood plasma, especially in patients with initially increased clearance of theophylline under the influence of smoking.
Antihypertensive effect is weakened by NSAIDs (sodium ion retention and prostaglandin synthesis blockade by the kidneys), corticosteroids and estrogens (sodium ion retention).
Cardiac glycosides, methyldopa, reserpine and guanfacine, slow calcium channel blockers (verapamil, diltiazem), amiodarone and other antiarrhythmic drugs increase the risk of developing or worsening bradycardia, AV blockade, heart failure and heart failure.
Nifedipine can lead to a significant decrease in blood pressure.
Diuretics, clonidine, sympatholytics, hydralazine and other antihypertensive drugs can lead to an excessive decrease in blood pressure.
Extends the action of non-depolarizing muscle relaxants and increases the anticoagulant effect of coumarins.
Tri- and tetracyclic antidepressants, antipsychotics (antipsychotics), ethanol, sedative and hypnotic drugs increase CNS depression.
The simultaneous use with MAO inhibitors is not recommended, due to a significant increase in the hypotensive effect, the treatment interval between taking MAO inhibitors and bisoprolol should be at least 14 days.
Non-hydrogenated ergot alkaloids increase the risk of peripheral circulation disorders.
Ergotamine increases the risk of developing peripheral circulatory disorders sulfasalazine increases the concentration of bisoprolol in blood plasma rifampicin reduces.
