In Treatment of Hypertensive emergency
Miniblock 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.

It is given as an injection under the supervision of your doctor.
In Treatment of Angina (heart-related chest pain)
