Nebilet, known generically as Nebivolol, is a medication primarily used in the management of hypertension, or high blood pressure. It belongs to a class of drugs known as beta-blockers, which work by slowing down the heart rate and reducing the force of the heart muscle's contractions, thereby lowering blood pressure. Nebivolol is distinct from other beta-blockers due to its ability to produce nitric oxide, a vasodilator that helps to improve blood flow and reduce blood pressure further. It is often prescribed when other treatments for hypertension are not suitable or have not been effective. Nebilet may also be used for other heart-related conditions as determined by a healthcare provider. Its use can help prevent complications such as strokes and heart attacks that are associated with high blood pressure.
