I'm afraid to take Bisoprolol fumarate 1.25mg for arrhythmias, because I read that it can lower blood pressure, is that true?
The cardiologist prescribed me Bisoprolol fumarate 1.25mg tablets for arrhythmia, but for the last weeks I have low blood pressure and I'm afraid to take it because I read that they can lower blood pressure, is this true? When I went to the doctor, my blood pressure was normal

To @Bisoprololo:
Switching from one medication to another should only be done under the supervision of a doctor who will take into account your medical conditions and dosage. It is not recommended to replace these drugs on your own without consulting a specialist.
Inderal (propranolol) and bisoprolol are beta-blockers, but they differ in the action and selectivity of beta-adrenergic receptors. Bisoprolol has a more selective effect on the heart, while propranolol has a broader effect, also involving beta-2 receptors.
I take inderal 10 mg but it is discontinued, can I replace it with bisoprolol 1.25 mg

It is difficult to give a clear answer based on such a short description. As a pharmacist, I can only give you general information: Bisoprolol is a beta-blocker drug that is often prescribed to treat a variety of heart conditions, including arrhythmias. One of the side effects of beta-blockers can be a reduction in blood pressure. The risk of side effects does not mean that they have to occur in every patient, it is a very individual matter.
If you've noticed a drop in your blood pressure over the past few weeks and are concerned that Bisoprolol may further lower your blood pressure, it's important to talk to your doctor about your concerns. Your doctor may adjust your dose or consider other treatment options. Any modifications in therapy, including discontinuation of the drug, should be made after consultation with the attending physician who is familiar with your health condition in detail.

It is not recommended to change the dose yourself or stop treatment without consulting your doctor. If you have concerns about your treatment, the first thing you should do is consult your doctor. If you do not have the possibility of an in-person visit, I encourage you to take advantage of the teleconsultation, e.g. via the Gdziepolek.pl portal:

The GdziePoLek.pl service also allows you to book the medicine at a selected stationary pharmacy and collect it after presenting a prescription:
