How Lodoz Products work
Bisoprolol + Hydrochlorothiazide is a combination of two blood-pressure lowering medicines: Bisoprolol + Hydrochlorothiazide1 and Bisoprolol + Hydrochlorothiazide2. Bisoprolol + Hydrochlorothiazide1 is a beta blocker. It works specifically on the heart to improve its efficiency of pumping blood throughout the body. Bisoprolol + Hydrochlorothiazide2 is a diuretic which lowers blood pressure by removing extra water from the body. Over time it also relaxes blood vessels and improves blood flow.
