Inside, at the same time, regardless of food intake, without chewing and drinking with a sufficient amount of liquid.
Arterial hypertension and ischemic heart disease
The average daily dose is 5 mg (1 tablet 1 time / day). The optimal effect becomes pronounced after 1-2 weeks of treatment, in some cases - after 4 weeks.
If necessary, the dose can be increased to a maximum daily dose of 10 mg (2 tablets in one dose).
It is possible to use the drug in the form of monotherapy or as part of combined antihypertensive therapy.
Patients with renal insufficiency:
the initial dose is 2.5 mg / day (1/2 tablet of 5 mg). If necessary, the daily dose can be increased to 5 mg. The maximum daily dose is 10 mg.
Elderly patients: for patients older than 65 years, the initial dose is 2.5 mg / day (1/2 tablets of 5 mg). If necessary, the daily dose can be increased to 5 mg. However, taking into account the limited experience of using the drug in elderly patients,it is necessary to be cautious and conduct a thorough examination of patients over the age of 65 years.
Chronic heart failure
Treatment of stable chronic heart failure should begin with a gradual increase in the dose to achieve an individual optimal maintenance dose. Patients should not have attacks of acute heart failure within the last 6 weeks. It is recommended to carry out treatment under close supervision of a doctor.
Patients who take diuretics, cardiac glycosides, angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors, angiotensin II antagonists, dosing of drugs should be stabilized within 2 weeks. before the start of Nebivolol Stada® therapy.
To start treatment of chronic heart failure with beta-adrenergic blockers is necessary in a clinically stable state for the last 2 weeks. Each dose increase should be carried out not later than 2 weeks, depending on the individual sensitivity of the organism. Increase the dose from 1.25 mg / day (1/4 tablets of 5 mg) to 2.5 mg / day (1/2 tablets of 5 mg), then - to 5-10 mg / day (1-2 tablets 5 mg each). The maximum daily dose is 10 mg.
The beginning of therapy and every increase in the dose of the drug should be carried out under the strict supervision of the physician for at least the first 2 hours. During titration, regular monitoring of blood pressure, heart rate and symptoms of severe chronic heart failure is recommended. The occurrence of adverse reactions in all patients taking the maximum recommended dose can be prevented. If necessary, the dose achieved can be reduced and raised again.
During the titration phase, in case of worsening of the course of chronic heart failure or intolerance of the drug, it is recommended to reduce the dose of the drug or stop taking it.
Treatment of chronic chronic failure is usually prolonged. Treatment with drug Nebivolol Stade® is not recommended to be discontinued sharply, as this may lead to a temporary exacerbation of heart failure symptoms. If it is necessary to stop taking the drug, the cancellation is carried out gradually, reducing the dose during the week by half.
Patients with renal insufficiency: with mild and moderate renal disease
there is no need to adjust the dose, so it is necessary to select the dose individually, gradually increasing to the maximum tolerable. There is no experience of using the drug in patients with severe renal dysfunction (creatinine level <25 ml / min), so its use in such patients is not recommended.
Patents of the elderly: there is no need to adjust the dose, so it is necessary to individually select the dose, gradually increasing to the maximum tolerable.
