DESCRIPTION
Bisoprolol fumarate and hydrochlorothiazide tablets USP are indicated
for the treatment

once–daily dosage: a
synthetic beta -selective (cardioselective) adrenoceptor blocking
agent (bisoprolol
fumarate) and a benzothiadiazine diuretic (hydrochlorothiazide).
Bisoprolol fumarate is chemically described as (±)-1-[4-[[2-(1-
methylethoxy)ethoxy]methyl]
phenoxy]-3-[(1-methylethyl)amino]-2-propanol(_E_)-2-
butenedioate(2:1)(salt). It possesses an asymmetric carbon atom in its
structure and is
provided as a racemic mixture. The S(-) enantiomer is responsible for
most of the beta-
blocking activity. Its molecular formula is (C
