1. What Nebivolol Sandoz is and what it is used for

Nebivolol Sandoz contains nebivolol, a cardiovascular drug belonging to the group of selective beta-blockers (i.e. with a selective effect on the cardiovascular system). It prevents the heart rate from increasing and controls the pumping power of the heart. It also dilates blood vessels, which helps lower blood pressure.

It is used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension).

Nebivolol Sandoz is also used to treat mild to moderate chronic heart failure in patients 70 years of age or older, as an adjunct to other therapy.
