Pharmacodynamics
A cardioselective beta 1-adrenoblocker. It has hypotensive, antianginal and antiarrhythmic effects. Reduces elevated BP at rest, under physical stress and stress. Competitively and selectively blocks postsynaptic β1-adrenoreceptors, making them unavailable for catecholamines, modulates the release of endothelial vasodilatory factor nitric oxide (NO).
Nebivololol is a racemate of two enantiomers: SRRR-nebivolol (D-nebivolol) and RSSS-nebivolol (L-nebivolol) combining two pharmacological actions:
– D-nebivololol is a competitive and highly selective blocker of β1-adrenoreceptors;
– L-nebivololol has a mild vasodilator effect by modulating the release of vasodilatory factor (NO) from the vascular endothelium.
The hypotensive effect is also due to decrease of renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) activity (does not directly correlate with changes in plasma renin activity).
Sustained hypotensive effect develops after 1-2 weeks of regular use of the drug, and in some cases – after 4 weeks, a stable effect is noted after 1-2 months.
Limiting myocardial oxygen demand (decrease in HR and decrease in ante- and post-load), it reduces the number and severity of angina attacks and increases exercise tolerance.
The antiarrhythmic action is due to the suppression of pathological automatism of the heart (including in the pathological focus) and the slowing of AV conduction.
Pharmacokinetics
absorption
After oral administration, both enantiomers are rapidly absorbed. Food intake has no effect on absorption, so nebivolol can be taken regardless of meals. The bioavailability of nebivolol after oral administration averages 12% in those with “fast” metabolism (first-pass effect through the liver) and is almost complete in those with “slow” metabolism.
Distribution
In plasma both enantiomers are predominantly bound to albumin. Binding to plasma proteins is 98.1% for D-nebivololol and 97.9% for L-nebivololol.
Metabolism
Metabolized by acyclic and aromatic hydroxylation and partial N-dealkylation. The resulting hydroxy- and amino derivatives conjugate with glucuronic acid and are excreted as O- and N-glucuronides.
Elimination
Extracted by the kidneys (38%) and through the intestine (48%). In persons with “fast” metabolism T1/2 of hydroxymetabolites is 24 h, enantiomers of nebivololol – 10 h; in persons with “slow” metabolism: hydroxymetabolites – 48 h, enantiomers of nebivololol – 30-50 h.
The urinary excretion of unchanged nebivololol is less than 0.5% of the amount of the drug taken orally.
Indications
Angina, Tachycardia, Heart failure, Hypertension (high blood pressure), Cardialgia (heart pain), Arrhythmia
Ischemic heart disease: prevention of angina attacks; arterial hypertension; chronic heart failure (in combination therapy).

How to take, the dosage
The tablets are taken orally, once a day, preferably always at the same time of the day, regardless of meals, with plenty of fluids.
The average daily dose for the treatment of arterial hypertension and CHD is 2.5-5 mg (1/2-1 tablet). Nebilet® can be used in monotherapy or in combination with other BP-lowering agents.
In patients with renal impairment and in patients over 65 years of age, the recommended starting dose is 2.5 mg (1/2 tablet)/day. If necessary, the daily dose can be increased to a maximum of 10 mg (2 tablets of 5 mg at 1 sitting).
The treatment of chronic heart failure should begin with slowly increasing the dose until an individual optimal maintenance dose is reached.
The dose selection at the start of treatment should be as follows, at intervals of 1 to 2 weeks and based on the patient’s tolerance of this dose: a dose of 1.25 mg of nebivolol (1/4 tablet. 5 mg) once daily can be increased first to 2.5-5 mg (1/2 5 mg tablet or 1 5 mg tablet) and then to 10 mg (2 5 mg tablets) once daily.
The maximum daily dose is 10 mg once daily.
The patient should be monitored for at least 2 hours at the start of treatment and each time the dose is increased to make sure that the clinical condition remains stable (especially BP, HR, conduction disturbances, and symptoms of worsening course of chronic heart failure).
Rules for dividing tablets
To divide, place the tablet on a hard, flat surface with the crosshair notch facing up, press down on the tablet with both index fingers. To get 1/4 tablet, repeat the same steps with 1/2 tablet.
Interaction
Pharmacokinetic interaction
. Concomitant use of nebivololol with drugs that inhibit serotonin reuptake, or other agents biotransformed with the participation of CYP2D6 isoenzyme, increases the plasma concentration of nebivolol, nebivolol metabolism is slowed, which may lead to a risk of bradycardia.
Concomitant use of nebivolol with cimetidine increases the concentration of nebivolol in plasma.
Simultaneous use of nebivolol and ranitidine has no effect on the pharmacokinetic parameters of nebivolol.
Concomitant use of nebivolol and nicardipine slightly increases plasma concentrations of the active substances, but this has no clinical significance.
Concomitant administration of nebivololol and ethanol, furosemide or hydrochlorothiazide does not affect the pharmacokinetics of nebivolol.
No clinically significant interaction of nebivolol and warfarin was found.
When combining nebivololol with insulin and hypoglycemic agents for oral administration, symptoms of hypoglycemia (tachycardia) may be masked.
Pharmacodynamic interaction
Simultaneous use of beta-adrenoblockers with slow calcium channel blockers (verapamil and diltiazem) increases the negative effect on myocardial contractility and AV conduction.
Verapamil is contraindicated by intravenous administration of verapamil against the background of nebivolol.
Simultaneous use of nebivolol with hypotensive agents, nitroglycerin or slow calcium channel blockers may lead to severe arterial hypotension (special care is required in combination with prazosin).
Concomitant use of nebivolol with antiarrhythmic agents of class I and with amiodarone may increase negative inotropic effect and prolongation of excitation time through the atria.
Concomitant use of nebivolol and cardiac glycosides did not show increased effect on delayed AV conduction.
Concomitant use of nebivolol and drugs for general anesthesia may inhibit reflex tachycardia and increase the risk of arterial hypotension.
No clinically significant interaction of nebivolol and NSAIDs was found.
Concomitant use of nebivololol with tricyclic antidepressants, barbiturates and phenothiazine derivatives may increase the hypotensive effect of nebivolol.
Special Instructions
Beta-adrenoblockers should be withdrawn gradually over 10 days (up to 2 weeks in patients with CHD).
Control of BP and HR at the beginning of the drug administration should be daily.
In elderly patients it is necessary to monitor renal function (once every 4-5 months).
In case of angina pectoris the drug dose should provide resting heart rate within 55-60 beats/min, on load – not more than 110 beats/min.
Beta-adrenoblockers may cause bradycardia: The dose should be reduced if HR is less than 50-55 bpm.
When deciding whether to use Nebilet® in patients with psoriasis the supposed benefit of the drug and the possible risk of exacerbation of psoriasis should be carefully balanced.
Patients who wear contact lenses should be aware that the use of beta-adrenoblockers may reduce tear fluid production.
During surgical interventions, the anesthesiologist should be warned that the patient is taking beta-adrenoblockers.
Nebivolol does not affect the plasma glucose concentration in patients with diabetes. Nevertheless, caution should be exercised when treating these patients since Nebilet® may mask certain symptoms of hypoglycemia (e.g., tachycardia) caused by the use of hypoglycemic agents for oral administration and insulin.
Monitoring of plasma glucose concentration should be carried out once every 4-5 months (in patients with diabetes).
In hyperfunctioning thyroid gland beta-adrenoblockers may mask tachycardia.
Beta-adrenoblockers should be used with caution in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease because bronchospasm may increase.
Beta-adrenoblockers may increase sensitivity to allergens and the severity of anaphylactic reactions.
Influence on the ability to drive vehicles and other mechanisms requiring increased concentration
The effect of Nebilet® on the ability to drive vehicles and operate mechanisms has not been specifically studied. Studies of pharmacodynamics of Nebivolol showed that Nebilet® has no effect on psychomotor function.
During treatment with Nebilet® (in case of side effects) caution should be exercised while driving vehicles and during potentially dangerous activities that require high concentration and quick psychomotor reactions.

In AV-blockade (stage II-III) it is recommended to administer beta-adrenostimulants by IV, and if they are ineffective, an artificial pacemaker should be considered.
In case of heart failure, treatment begins with administration of cardiac glycosides and diuretics; if there is no effect, dopamine, dobutamine or vasodilators are appropriate.
In case of bronchospasm, intravenous β2-adrenoreceptor stimulants are used.
In case of ventricular estrasystole, lidocaine (Class IA antiarrhythmic agents should not be administered).
Pregnancy use
Nebivolol is excreted with the breast milk. If Nebilet® must be taken during lactation, breastfeeding must be stopped.
In pregnancy Nebilet® is administered only with vital indications when the benefit for the mother exceeds the possible risk for the fetus or newborn (due to possible development of bradycardia, arterial hypotension and hypoglycemia in fetus and newborn). If Nebilet® treatment is necessary the uteroplacental blood flow and fetal growth should be monitored.
The treatment should be discontinued 48-72 h before delivery. In cases where this is not possible, strict neonatal monitoring should be established for 48-72 h after delivery.
