Frequently asked questions

Is bisoprolol a beta blocker?

Yes, bisoprolol is a type of medication called a beta-adrenergic blocking agent or beta-blocker.

Do you need a prescription for bisoprolol?

Yes. Bisoprolol is only available with a prescription from a doctor.

Can you buy bisoprolol over the counter?

No. You cannot buy bisoprolol over the counter without a prescription. This is because your doctor needs to check that bisoprolol is suitable for you to take. If you have been prescribed this medication before, you can buy bisoprolol online from Asda Online Doctor. Simply fill out a brief questionnaire for our doctors to review. We will then either deliver your medication to your home, or you can collect it from your nearest Asda pharmacy.

Is bisoprolol safe to use?

Bisoprolol is a generally safe medication, but it can cause side effects in some people. To reduce the risk of side effects, always take your medication exactly as your doctor tells you to and tell your doctor or pharmacist about any health conditions, allergies, and other medications you are taking. If you experience side effects while taking bisoprolol, speak to your GP.

Does bisoprolol cause erectile dysfunction?

Erectile dysfunction (ED) is an uncommon but known side effect of beta blockers including bisoprolol. If you experience ED after starting treatment with bisoprolol, talk to your GP.

Does bisoprolol affect sleep?

Difficulty sleeping (insomnia) is a known side effect of beta blockers especially in people over 65 years of age. This is thought to be because they block the release of melatonin, a hormone that promotes sleep. The risk of insomnia while taking bisoprolol was found to be lower than with other beta-blockers such as propranolol. If you are having difficulty sleeping while taking bisoprolol, talk to your GP.

Can bisoprolol cause weight gain?

Weight gain can occasionally occur as a side effect of beta-blockers, though this is more common in older beta-blockers such as atenolol and metoprolol. It normally stops a few months after starting the medication. If you are worried about weight gain after starting bisoprolol, talk to your doctor.
