Nebicard T (Nebivolol 5 mg + Telmisartan 40 mg) – Synergistic Combination for Hypertension

Nebicard T combines Nebivolol (5 mg), a β₁‑selective vasodilating beta-blocker, with Telmisartan (40 mg), an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB), to deliver dual‑mechanism blood pressure reduction. 

Key Benefits:

• Dual-action: slows heart rate via nebivolol and relaxes blood vessels via telmisartan
• Effective once-daily dosing improves adherence
• Reduces risk of stroke, heart attack, and other cardiovascular events

How It Works

Nebivolol selectively blocks β₁‑adrenergic receptors while promoting nitric oxide–mediated vasodilation, lowering heart rate and vascular resistance. ([turn0search19]) Telmisartan blocks angiotensin II from constricting blood vessels, reducing vascular resistance and improving blood flow. 

Recommended Dosage

Typically taken once daily, with or without food. Follow your physician’s instructions—do not crush or chew the tablet. Continue regular use even if feeling well. 

Possible Side Effects

• Headache, dizziness, fatigue
• Cold or numb extremities, weakness
• Slow heart rate (bradycardia), increased potassium (hyperkalaemia)
• Low blood pressure, swollen legs/ankles
• Nausea, diarrhea, nasopharyngitis, edema, possible erectile dysfunction

Most effects are mild and resolve with time; contact your doctor if symptoms persist. 

Precautions & Interactions

• Not suitable for patients with bradycardia, cardiogenic shock, hypotension, or severe hepatic impairment. 
• Monitor kidney function and electrolytes—avoid potassium supplements unless advised. 
• Use with caution in diabetes—beta-blockers may mask hypoglycemia. 
• Avoid sudden drug discontinuation—consult your doctor before stopping. 
• Avoid alcohol—it may exacerbate dizziness or hypotension. (
• Not recommended in pregnancy or breastfeeding—seek medical advice before use. 

Why Choose Nebicard T?

• Combines two complementary classes—β-blocker + ARB—for potent blood pressure control
• Manufactured by Torrent Pharmaceuticals, a leading global company in cardiovascular therapeutics.
• Ideal for patients not controlled on monotherapy or with comorbid cardiovascular risk factors

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

1. What is Nebicard T used for?

Used to treat hypertension by reducing heart rate and relaxing blood vessels, lowering the risk of stroke and heart attack.

2. Can it be taken with food?

Yes—Nebicard T can be taken with or without meals, but consistently at the same time each day. 

3. What if I miss a dose?

Take it as soon as remembered unless it’s near the next dose—skip missed dose and continue normally. Do not double dose.

4. Does it cause slow heart rate?

Possibly. Nebivolol may slow the heart—monitor for bradycardia especially in the elderly or if taking other heart-rate–lowering drugs. 

5. Is monitoring required?

Yes—regular checks of blood pressure, kidney function, electrolytes, and potassium levels are advised.
