What Emconcor CHF is and what it is used for<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The active substance in Emconcor CHF is bisoprolol.&nbsp;Bisoprolol belongs to a group of medicines called&nbsp;beta-blockers.&nbsp;These drugs work by affecting the body&#8217;s response to certain nerve impulses, especially in the heart.&nbsp;This effect means that bisoprolol slows down the heart rate and makes the heart pump around the blood in the body more efficiently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Heart failure&nbsp;occurs when the heart muscle is weak and unable to pump enough blood to meet the body&#8217;s needs.&nbsp;Emconcor CHF is used to treat stable&nbsp;chronic&nbsp;heart failure.&nbsp;The drug is used in combination with other drugs that are suitable for this condition (such as&nbsp;ACE inhibitors,&nbsp;diuretics,&nbsp;and cardiac glycosides).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bisoprolol contained in Emconcor CHF may also be approved for the treatment of other conditions not mentioned in this leaflet.&nbsp;Ask your doctor, pharmacist, or another healthcare professional if you have any further questions, and always follow their instructions.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What you need to know before taking Emconcor CHF<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Do not take Emconcor CHF<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Do not take Emconcor CHF if you have any of the following conditions:<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>allergy&nbsp;(hypersensitivity) to bisoprolol or any of the other ingredients of Emconcor CHF (see section 6, \u201cContents of

undergo:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>desensitization treatment (eg for the prevention of hay fever) as Emconcor CHF may increase the likelihood of an&nbsp;allergic reaction&nbsp;or that such a reaction becomes more severe<\/li><li>anesthesia (eg during surgery), as Emconcor CHF can affect how the body responds to this situation.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have&nbsp;chronic&nbsp;lung disease or less severe&nbsp;asthma&nbsp;and are being treated with Emconcor CHF, contact your doctor immediately if you experience new symptoms such as difficulty breathing, coughing, wheezing after exercise, or other respiratory symptoms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Children and young people<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Emconcor CHF is not recommended for

used during pregnancy.&nbsp;If you are pregnant or planning to become pregnant, tell your doctor.&nbsp;He or she will determine if you can take Emconcor CHF during pregnancy.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Breast-feeding<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is not known if bisoprolol passes into breast milk.&nbsp;Therefore, breast-feeding is not recommended during treatment with Emconcor CHF.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Driving and using machines<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The ability to drive or use machines may be affected, depending on how well you tolerate the medicine.&nbsp;Take special care at the beginning of treatment, when&nbsp;increasing the&nbsp;dose&nbsp;or changing the medication, as well as when combined with alcohol.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You are responsible for assessing whether you are fit to drive a motor vehicle or perform work that requires increased vigilance.&nbsp;One of the factors that can affect your ability in these respects is the use of drugs due to their effects and\/or&nbsp;side effects.&nbsp;Descriptions of these effects and&nbsp;side effects&nbsp;can be found in other sections.&nbsp;Read all the information in this leaflet for guidance.&nbsp;If you are not sure, talk to your doctor or pharmacist.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. How to take Emconcor CHF<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Always take this medicine exactly as your doctor has told you.&nbsp;Ask your doctor or pharmacist if you are unsure.&nbsp;<br>Treatment with Emconcor CHF requires regular medical check-ups.&nbsp;This is especially important at the beginning of treatment, during dose escalation, and at the end of treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Take the tablet with a little water in the morning, with or without food.&nbsp;The tablets must not be chewed or crushed.&nbsp;The scored tablets can be divided into two equal&nbsp;doses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Treatment with Emconcor CHF is usually long-lasting.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Adults, including the elderly<\/em>&nbsp;<br>Treatment with bisoprolol must be initiated at a low&nbsp;dose&nbsp;and gradually increased.&nbsp;<br>Your doctor will decide how&nbsp;to increase your&nbsp;dose, and this will normally be done as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>1.25 mg bisoprolol once daily for one week<\/li><li>2.5 mg bisoprolol once daily for one week<\/li><li>3.75 mg bisoprolol once daily for one week<\/li><li>5 mg bisoprolol once daily for four weeks<\/li><li>7.5 mg bisoprolol once daily for four weeks<\/li><li>10 mg bisoprolol once daily for maintenance treatment.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The highest recommended daily&nbsp;dose&nbsp;is 10 mg bisoprolol.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Depending on how well you tolerate the medicine, your doctor may also extend the time between dose increases.&nbsp;If the condition worsens or you can no longer tolerate the medicine, it may be necessary to lower the&nbsp;dose&nbsp;again or to stop treatment.&nbsp;For some patients, a maintenance dose lower than 10 mg bisoprolol may be sufficient.&nbsp;<br>Your doctor will tell you what to do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you need to stop treatment completely, your doctor will normally instruct you to reduce the&nbsp;dose&nbsp;gradually, as the condition may worsen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">If you take more Emconcor CHF then you should<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have ingested too much medicine or if e.g.&nbsp;If a child has inadvertently ingested the medicine, contact a doctor, hospital, or the Poison Information Center for risk assessment and advice.&nbsp;<br>Symptoms of&nbsp;overdose&nbsp;may include slow heartbeat, difficulty breathing, dizziness, or tremors (due to lowered blood sugar).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">If you forget to take Emconcor CHF<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Do not take a double&nbsp;dose&nbsp;to make up for a forgotten&nbsp;dose.&nbsp;Take your usual&nbsp;dose the next morning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">If you stop taking Emconcor CHF<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Never stop taking Emconcor CHF unless your doctor tells you to.&nbsp;Otherwise, your condition may worsen sharply.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have any further questions on the use of this product, ask your doctor or pharmacist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4.
