How Bisojoy 2.5 Tablet works:

Bisojoy 2.5 Tablet contain bisoprolol, which belongs to a group of medicines called beta-blockers. When our body has to respond to stress, such as during exercise or anxiety, it releases a hormone called adrenaline. This hormone adrenaline attaches to beta-1 receptors in the heart, causing the heart to beat faster and harder, which increases blood pressure and the heart's need for oxygen.

Consequently, the heart relaxes and can pump blood more efficiently.
