FAQ

What should I avoid when taking Zebeta?

During treatment with Zebeta you should avoid drinking alcohol, especially in high quantities, because it can cause the medication to lower your blood pressure to dangerous levels. This can increase side effects including dizziness and feeling faint. You should also avoid driving or performing hazardous tasks until you know how this medication will affect you and if your reactions are impaired.

Is it better to take Zebeta in the morning or at night?

Zebeta can be taken at any time of day without losing its effectiveness at lowering your blood pressure. However, your healthcare provider may recommend that you take your daily dose in the morning. If you experience dizziness from taking your doses, your healthcare provider may prescribe that you take your dose at night to minimize side effects. Follow all directions given by your healthcare provider for the best results during treatment.
