In Treatment of Hypertensive emergency
Esocard 100mg Injection belongs to a group of medicine called long-acting beta-blocker. It works by blocking the effects of some chemicals on your heart and blood vessels. It slows down your heart rate and helps the heart beat with less force. This lowers your blood pressure and helps in reducing your risk of having a stroke, a heart attack, other heart problems, or kidney problems in the future. It is given as an injection under the supervision of your doctor.
In Treatment of Angina (heart-related chest pain)
Esocard 100mg Injection relaxes the blood vessels so that blood can flow more easily around your body and makes sure that your heart is getting a good supply of oxygen. This makes it less likely that you will suffer chest pain caused by angina. This medicine can help increase your ability to exercise and go about your daily life more easily. It is given as an injection under the supervision of your doctor.
