What is Bystolic (Nebivolol)?
Bystolic contains the generic medicinal ingredient nebivolol, which belongs to a family of drugs called beta blockers. The drug is prescribed to treat high blood pressure.
Why do doctors prescribe this drug?
Doctors prescribe this medicine to hypertensive patients to reduce blood pressure. Doctors may add another medicine like a diuretic (water pill) or an ACE inhibitor to take along with this medicine.
