Yes, beta-blockers like Nebicard-5 (Nebivolol) can sometimes trigger or worsen psoriasis (a skin condition marked by red, itchy, scaly patches). Since your father already has this condition, it is important to consult his doctor or a dermatologist. The doctor may recommend switching to an alternative blood pressure medication that is less likely to affect his psoriasis.
