Brief Summary: The trial is designed to assess the safety and investigation of the efficacy of a single oral dose of bisoprolol (Nerkardou - Nerhadou) oral dissolvable film (ODF) 5 \& 10 mg, and patients' compliance in the treatment of essential hypertension. This is a Phase IV, open-label, single-arm, prospective trial where subjects will receive:

1. Bisoprolol (Nerkardou) at an initial dose of 5 (mg) milligrams once daily for 2 weeks.
2. If the blood pressure would be greater than or equal to 130/80 mmHg after 2 weeks, then the dose will be titrated to 10 mg once daily (non-responders). Dose-Titration will be done at any follow-up visit based on the response.
3. The total duration of study treatment will be 12 weeks ±2 days, and the total sample size of the study will be 406 participants.
Detailed Description: The trial is designed to assess the safety and investigation of the efficacy of a single oral dose of bisoprolol (Nerkardou - Nerhadou) oral dissolvable film (ODF) 5 \& 10 mg \& patients' compliance in the treatment of essential hypertension. This is a Phase IV, open-label, single-arm, prospective trial where subjects will receive:

The subject will initially administer once daily 5 mg bisoprolol (Nerkardou) oral dissolvable film (ODF) for 2 weeks. After the assessment of the subject being a responder, study medication will be maintained till week 12. Response will be assessed for each patient every 2 weeks and dose-titration will be done based on the response and PI decision at any visit. Then, for responders, once daily 5 mg bisoprolol (Nerkardou) oral dissolvable film (ODF will be administered for the subsequent 2 weeks. For non-responders once daily 10 mg bisoprolol (Nerkardou) oral dissolvable film (ODF) will be administered for the subsequent 2 weeks. For those who are still not responding to the higher dose will be shifted to other alternatives according to their merit and they will be included to intention to treat.

A responder is defined by BP response, which is represented in the form of a ≥20 mmHg decreases in sitting through SBP and a ≥10 mmHg decreases in sitting through DBP, or a sitting through SBP of \<130 mmHg and a sitting through DBP of \<80 mmHg.

The total duration of study treatment will be 12 week (±2days). (Flow chart of trail design Appendix III) and the total sample size of the study will be 406 participants.

The trial has a duration of approximately 14 weeks, including:

1. Screening (assessments to determine eligibility for entry into the trial, occurring within 14 days to day 1 before treatment initiation (week -2) to (week 0).
2. Treatment duration (5 mg or 10 mg bisoprolol (Nerkardou) based on the response) (duration of 12 weeks); from Day 1 (week 1) to the end of day 84 ±2days (week 12 ±2days)
3. Premature withdrawal/ Early Discontinuation
