Is Nebicard a beta-blocker?
Hello. My dad has mental problems. By a psychiatrist he has prescribed Biomentin 20mg x1, Zolafren 10mg x 2, propranolol 10mg x3, asentra 50mg once 1. Recently, he has started to catch infections frequently (severe cough). The primary care physician suspects fibrosis in the lungs and COPD. He stated that propranolol is not recommended for such a suspected immunological disease and replaced it with nebicard 5mg x2.
I have doubts whether nebicard will be a good beta-blocker and whether it is?

Yes, Nebicard contains nebivolol, which belongs to the group of beta-blockers.
The reduction of blood pressure by nebivolol is due to a reduction in peripheral resistance and an increase in ejectory volume, without lowering cardiac output. By improving endothelial function and reducing arterial stiffness, nebivolol may reduce cardiovascular risk.
In addition, there is evidence that nebivolol exerts antioxidant effects that may generate additional vasodilator effects. Differences between nebivolol and other beta-blockers include improvements in endothelial function, arterial flow, exercise tolerance and safety profile.

If your doctor has recommended replacing Propranolol with Nebicard, you should follow the specialist's recommendations.
And then there's the important question. Is it possible to go down from propranolol to nebicard so suddenly. The primary care physician told me to go straight away. At noon propranolol is given and in the evening nebicard is to be administered? Can this be done?
