Mechanism of Action

Nebivolol exerts its actions by exhibiting a high selectivity for beta-1 adrenergic receptors and also by reducing the peripheral vascular resistance by modulating nitrous oxide release. Hydrochlorothiazide inhibits the reabsorption of Na and chloride at the beginning of distal convoluted tubule. It causes natriuretic effect mainly by decreasing Na and chloride reabsorption in the cortical segment of the ascending limb of the Loop of Henle by inhibition of a specific Na+Cl- co-transporter.
