Note: Beta-blockers are not recommended as first-line therapy (ACC/AHA [Whelton 2017]). * See Uses in AHFS Essentials for additional information. Use: Off-Label: Adult Acute MI Level of Evidence [G] According to the American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association (ACC/AHA) guidelines for the management of ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and the ACC/AHA guidelines for the management of non-ST-elevation ACS (NSTE-ACS), oral beta-blockers should be initiated within the first 24 hours unless the patient has signs of heart failure, evidence of a low-output state, an increased risk for cardiogenic shock, or other contraindications. However, recommendations do not specify any particular beta-blocking agent for optimal treatment of NSTE-ACS. Thus, clinicians must use practical experience to determine proper therapy in managing patients Ref. Atrial fibrillation (rate control) Level of Evidence [G] https://online.lexi.com/lco/action/doc/retrieve/docid/patch_f/6461?cesid=40FscczomyD&searchUrl=%2Flco%2Faction%2Fsearch%3Fq%3Dbisoprolol%26t%3Dna ٢٠٢٠/١/٢٣ Lexicomp Based on the 2014 American Heart Association/American College of Cardiology/Heart Rhythm Society (AHA/ACC/HRS) guideline for the management of patients with atrial fibrillation (AF), the use of beta-blockers, including bisoprolol, for ventricular rate control in patients with paroxysmal, persistent, or permanent AF is effective and recommended for this condition. Heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) Level of Evidence [A, G] Data from a European multicenter double-blind randomized placebo-controlled trial supports the use of bisoprolol in the treatment of patients with heart failure Ref. Based on the American College of Cardiology Foundation/American Heart Association (ACCF/AHA) 2013 heart failure guidelines, the use of 1 of the 3 beta-blockers (ie, bisoprolol, carvedilol, or extended-release metoprolol succinate) is effective and recommended for all patients with recent or remote history of MI or ACS and reduced ejection fraction (rEF) to reduce mortality, for all patients with rEF to prevent symptomatic heart failure (HF) even if no history of MI, and for all patients with current or prior symptoms of HF with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), unless contraindicated to reduce morbidity and mortality. Ventricular arrhythmias Level of Evidence [G] Based on the American Heart Association/American College of Cardiology/Heart Rhythm Society (AHA/ACC/HRS) guideline for management of patients with ventricular arrhythmias and prevention of sudden cardiac death, beta-blockers are effective for control of ventricular arrhythmias and ventricular premature beats.

Medication Safety Issues Sound-alike/look-alike issues: Contraindications Cardiogenic shock; overt cardiac failure; marked sinus bradycardia or heart block greater than first-degree (except in patients with a functioning artificial pacemaker) Documentation of allergenic cross-reactivity for beta-blockers is limited. However, because of similarities in chemical structure and/or pharmacologic actions, the possibility of cross-sensitivity cannot be ruled out with certainty. Warnings/Precautions https://online.lexi.com/lco/action/doc/retrieve/docid/patch_f/6461?cesid=40FscczomyD&searchUrl=%2Flco%2Faction%2Fsearch%3Fq%3Dbisoprolol%26t%3Dna ٢٠٢٠/١/٢٣ Lexicomp Concerns related to adverse events: • Anaphylactic reactions: Use caution with history of severe anaphylaxis to allergens; patients taking beta-blockers may become more sensitive to repeated challenges. Treatment of anaphylaxis (eg, epinephrine) in patients taking beta-blockers may be ineffective or promote undesirable effects. Disease-related concerns: • Bronchospastic disease: In general, patients with bronchospastic disease should not receive beta-blockers; for patients with bronchospastic disease who do not respond to or cannot tolerate other therapies, initial low doses of beta1-selective bisoprolol may be employed and used cautiously with close monitoring. Ensure patient has an inhaled beta2-agonist immediately available. At doses ≥20 mg/day, slight asymptomatic increases in airway resistance and decreases in forced expiratory volume (FEV1) has been observed. • Conduction abnormality: Consider preexisting conditions such as sick sinus syndrome before initiating. • Diabetes: Use with caution in patients with diabetes mellitus; may potentiate hypoglycemia and/or mask signs and symptoms. • Heart failure (HF): Use with caution in patients with compensated heart failure and monitor for a worsening of the condition. Patients should be stabilized on heart failure regimen prior to initiation of beta-blocker. Beta-blocker therapy should be initiated at very low doses with gradual and very careful titration. Adjustment of other medications (ACE inhibitors and/or diuretics) may be required • Hepatic impairment: Use with caution in patients with hepatic impairment; dosage adjustment required with severe impairment. • Myasthenia gravis: Use with caution in patients with myasthenia gravis. • Peripheral vascular disease (PVD) and Raynaud disease: Can precipitate or aggravate symptoms of arterial insufficiency in patients with PVD and Raynaud disease. Use with caution and monitor for progression of arterial obstruction. • Pheochromocytoma (untreated): Adequate alpha-blockade is required prior to use of any beta-blocker. • Prinzmetal variant angina: Beta-blockers without alpha1-adrenergic receptor blocking activity should be avoided in patients with Prinzmetal variant angina since unopposed alpha1-adrenergic receptors mediate coronary vasoconstriction and can worsen anginal symptoms (Mayer 1998). • Psoriasis: Beta-blocker use has been associated with induction or exacerbation of psoriasis, but cause and effect have not been firmly established. • Renal impairment: Use with caution in patients with renal impairment; dosage adjustment required with CrCl <40 mL/minute. • Thyroid disease: May mask signs of hyperthyroidism (eg, tachycardia). If hyperthyroidism is suspected, carefully manage and monitor; abrupt withdrawal may precipitate thyroid storm. Concurrent drug therapy issues: • Drug-drug interactions: Potentially significant interactions may exist, requiring dose or frequency adjustment, additional monitoring, and/or selection of alternative therapy. Consult drug interactions database for more detailed information. Special populations: • Elderly: Bradycardia may be observed more frequently in elderly patients (>65 years of age); dosage reductions may be necessary. Other warnings/precautions: • Abrupt withdrawal: Beta-blocker therapy should not be withdrawn abruptly (particularly in patients with CAD), but gradually tapered to avoid acute tachycardia, hypertension, and/or ischemia. Severe exacerbation of angina, ventricular arrhythmias, and myocardial infarction (MI) have been reported following abrupt withdrawal of beta-blocker therapy. Temporary but prompt resumption of beta-blocker therapy may be indicated with worsening of angina or acute coronary insufficiency. • Major surgery: Chronic beta-blocker therapy should not be routinely withdrawn prior to major surgery. * See Cautions in AHFS Essentials for additional information. Geriatric Considerations Due to alterations in the beta-adrenergic autonomic nervous system, beta-adrenergic blockade may result in less hemodynamic response than seen in younger adults. Studies indicate that despite decreased sensitivity to the chronotropic effects of beta-blockade with age, there appears to be an increased myocardial sensitivity to the negative inotropic effect during stress (ie, exercise). Controlled trials have shown the overall response rate for propranolol to be only 20% to 50% in elderly populations. Therefore, all beta-adrenergic blocking drugs may result in a decreased response as compared to younger adults. The AHA/ACC/ASH 2015 scientific statement on the treatment of hypertension in patients with CAD warns to use caution to avoid decreases in DBP <60 mm Hg especially in patients >60 years of age since reduced coronary perfusion may occur. When lowering SBP in older hypertensive patients with wide pulse pressures, very low DBP values (<60 mm Hg) may result. In patients with obstructive CAD, clinicians should lower blood pressure slowly and carefully monitor for any untoward signs or symptoms, especially those resulting from myocardial ischemia and worsening heart failure (AHA/ACC/ASH [Rosendorff 2015]). Pregnancy Risk Factor C Pregnancy Considerations Exposure to beta-blockers during pregnancy may increase the risk for adverse events in the neonate. If maternal use of a beta-blocker is needed, fetal growth should be monitored during pregnancy and the newborn should be monitored for 48 hours after delivery for bradycardia, hypoglycemia, and respiratory depression (ESC [Regitz-Zagrosek 2018]). https://online.lexi.com/lco/action/doc/retrieve/docid/patch_f/6461?cesid=40FscczomyD&searchUrl=%2Flco%2Faction%2Fsearch%3Fq%3Dbisoprolol%26t%3Dna ٢٠٢٠/١/٢٣ Lexicomp Chronic maternal hypertension is also associated with adverse events in the fetus/infant. Chronic maternal hypertension may increase the risk of birth defects, low birth weight, premature delivery, stillbirth, and neonatal death. Actual fetal/neonatal risks may be related to duration and severity of maternal hypertension. Untreated chronic hypertension may also increase the risks of adverse maternal outcomes, including gestational diabetes, preeclampsia, delivery complications, stroke, and myocardial infarction (ACOG 203 2019). When treatment of chronic hypertension in pregnancy is indicated, agents other than bisoprolol are preferred (ACOG 203 2019; ESC [RegitzZagrosek 2018]; Magee 2014). Females with preexisting hypertension may continue their medication during pregnancy unless contraindications exist (ESC [Regitz-Zagrosek 2018]). Breast-Feeding Considerations It is not known if bisoprolol is present in breast milk. The manufacturer recommends that caution be exercised when administering bisoprolol to breastfeeding women. Use of a beta-blocker other than bisoprolol may be preferred in a lactating female (Anderson 2017; Ito 2000).

Risk C: Monitor therapy https://online.lexi.com/lco/action/doc/retrieve/docid/patch_f/6461?cesid=40FscczomyD&searchUrl=%2Flco%2Faction%2Fsearch%3Fq%3Dbisoprolol%26t%3Dna ٢٠٢٠/١/٢٣ Lexicomp Phosphodiesterase 5 Inhibitors: May enhance the hypotensive effect of Blood Pressure Lowering Agents. Risk C: Monitor therapy Propafenone: May increase the serum concentration of Beta-Blockers. Propafenone possesses some independent beta blocking activity. Risk C: Monitor therapy Prostacyclin Analogues: May enhance the hypotensive effect of Blood Pressure Lowering Agents. Risk C: Monitor therapy Quinagolide: May enhance the hypotensive effect of Blood Pressure Lowering Agents. Risk C: Monitor therapy Regorafenib: May enhance the bradycardic effect of Beta-Blockers. Risk C: Monitor therapy Reserpine: May enhance the hypotensive effect of Beta-Blockers. Risk C: Monitor therapy Rifamycin Derivatives: May decrease the serum concentration of Beta-Blockers. Exceptions: Rifabutin. Risk C: Monitor therapy Rivastigmine: May enhance the bradycardic effect of Beta-Blockers. Risk X: Avoid combination Ruxolitinib: May enhance the bradycardic effect of Bradycardia-Causing Agents. Management: Ruxolitinib Canadian product labeling recommends avoiding use with bradycardia-causing agents to the extent possible. Risk C: Monitor therapy Sarilumab: May decrease the serum concentration of CYP3A4 Substrates (High risk with Inducers). Risk C: Monitor therapy Siltuximab: May decrease the serum concentration of CYP3A4 Substrates (High risk with Inducers). Risk C: Monitor therapy Siponimod: Bradycardia-Causing Agents may enhance the bradycardic effect of Siponimod. Management: Avoid coadministration of siponimod with drugs that may cause bradycardia. Risk D: Consider therapy modification Sulfonylureas: Beta-Blockers may enhance the hypoglycemic effect of Sulfonylureas. Cardioselective beta-blockers (eg, acebutolol, atenolol, metoprolol, and penbutolol) may be safer than nonselective beta-blockers. All beta-blockers appear to mask tachycardia as an initial symptom of hypoglycemia. Ophthalmic beta-blockers are probably associated with lower risk than systemic agents. Risk C: Monitor therapy Terlipressin: May enhance the bradycardic effect of Bradycardia-Causing Agents. Risk C: Monitor therapy Theophylline Derivatives: Beta-Blockers (Beta1 Selective) may diminish the bronchodilatory effect of Theophylline Derivatives. Management: Monitor for reduced theophylline efficacy during concomitant use with any beta-blocker. Beta-1 selective agents are less likely to antagonize theophylline than nonselective agents, but selectivity may be lost at higher doses. Risk C: Monitor therapy Tocilizumab: May decrease the serum concentration of CYP3A4 Substrates (High risk with Inducers). Risk C: Monitor therapy Tofacitinib: May enhance the bradycardic effect of Bradycardia-Causing Agents. Risk C: Monitor therapy Yohimbine: May diminish the antihypertensive effect of Antihypertensive Agents.

Confirmed hypertension without markers of increased ASCVD risk: Target blood pressure <130/80 mm Hg may be reasonable. Advanced Practitioners Physical Assessment/Monitoring Obtain renal function tests and liver function tests (dosage adjustments may be needed) and serum glucose (diabetic patients). Obtain ECG. Screen patient for history of diabetes, heart failure, myasthenia gravis, peripheral vascular disease, pheochromocytoma, renal impairment, liver impairment, psoriasis, or thyroid disease. Evaluate risk vs benefit in patients with bronchospastic disease or Prinzmetal variant angina. Assess blood pressure and heart rate prior to and following first dose of therapy and after any change in dosage. Teach patient how to handle orthostatic/postural hypotension and hypotension precautions. When discontinuing therapy, taper dosage slowly. Nursing Physical Assessment/Monitoring Check ordered labs and tests and report any abnormalities. Monitor blood pressure and heart rate prior to and following first dose and with any change in dosage. Instruct patients to discontinue medicine slowly. Teach patients with diabetes possible side effects/appropriate interventions, including altered glucose tolerance and monitoring glucose levels closely. Teach patients orthostatic precautions (rise slowly, call for assistance, notify nurse if feeling dizzy or faint). Monitor for and educate patient to report any signs and symptoms of new or worsening heart failure (edema, new cough, difficulty breathing, unintentional weight gain, unresolved fatigue).

Mechanism of Action Selective inhibitor of beta1-adrenergic receptors; competitively blocks beta1-receptors, with little or no effect on beta2-receptors at doses ≤20 mg Pharmacodynamics/Kinetics Onset of action: 1 to 2 hours Absorption: Rapid and almost complete Distribution: Widely; highest concentrations in heart, liver, lungs, and saliva; crosses blood-brain barrier Protein binding: ~30% Metabolism: Extensively hepatic; significant first-pass effect (~20%) Bioavailability: ~80% Half-life elimination: Normal renal function: 9 to 12 hours; CrCl <40 mL/minute: 27 to 36 hours; Hepatic cirrhosis: 8 to 22 hours Time to peak: 2 to 4 hours Excretion: Urine (50% as unchanged drug, remainder as inactive metabolites); feces (<2%) Local Anesthetic/Vasoconstrictor Precautions No information available to require special precautions Effects on Dental Treatment Bisoprolol is a cardioselective beta-blocker. Local anesthetic with vasoconstrictor can be safely used in patients medicated with bisoprolol. Nonselective beta-blockers (ie, propranolol, nadolol) enhance the pressor response to epinephrine, resulting in hypertension and bradycardia; this has not been reported for bisoprolol. Many nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, such as ibuprofen and indomethacin, can reduce the hypotensive effect of beta-blockers after 3 or more weeks of therapy with the NSAID. Short-term NSAID use (ie, 3 days) requires no special precautions in patients taking beta-blockers.
