Ivabrad 5 tablet is a heart rate lowering medication. It works by reducing the heart rate which lowers the oxygen requirement of the heart. As a result, heart works more efficiently. It has no direct effect on blood pressure.

Dear user, Nervousness or Anxiety disorders are a category of mental disorders characterized by feelings of anxiety and fear, where anxiety is a worry about future events and fear is a reaction to current events. These feelings may cause physical symptoms, such as a racing heart and shakiness. There are a number of anxiety disorders: including generalized anxiety disorder, a specific phobia, social anxiety disorder, separation anxiety disorder, agoraphobia, and panic disorder among others. While each has its own characteristics and symptoms, they all include symptoms of anxiety. Anxiety medicines alone cannot cure anxiety disorders mainly because medicines do not alter behavior. Behavior change and Continuous practice of the changed behavior cure anxiety. I suggest anxiety education, progressive counseling and progressive psychotherapy. I assure you complete cure. I need to know more about your anxiety so that I will be able to diagnose it properly and provide you tips to overcome and manage your anxiety. Take care.

These medicines are not for disbalance, they are for control of BP, sugar, etc. Ivabradine may not be essential. For disbalance discuss with your Dr. about physiotherapy.

Based on Clinical Trials, Ivabradine on top of Beta blockers, like Metoprolol, have been advocated for the management of Chronic Stable Angina and Chronic Heart Failure, when the resting heart rate remains more than 70 beats per minute despite the patient taking sufficient doses of Beta blockade. In your case, before adding Ivabrad, Metolar could have been increased to 50 mg twice a day, provided your clinical status allowed for that, which your doctor, I believe, must have considered.

I have BP and doctor advised me to take ivabrad 5 mg along with tazloc 20 tablet. Other doctor told me that ivabrad is not needed. These medicines are advised after several tests and they said treadmill test is also positive. My previous reading were around 165/100 and it came to 130/80 after taking medicine. Do I need to take ivabrad? Please let me know.

Lvabrad is not BP medicine, it is given for fast heart beating, sinus tachycardia. You probably don't need Ugandans. Beta blocker medicines are useful for BP and for fast heart beating. You can discuss with your Dr.
