  2. Beta blocker - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beta_blocker

    Beta blockers are competitive antagonists that block the receptor sites for the endogenous catecholamines epinephrine (adrenaline) and norepinephrine (noradrenaline) on adrenergic beta receptors, of the sympathetic nervous system, which mediates the fight-or-flight response.

  3. Propranolol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propranolol

    It is a non-selective beta blocker which works by blocking β-adrenergic receptors. Propranolol was patented in 1962 and approved for medical use in 1964. It is on the World Health Organization's List of Essential Medicines. Propranolol is available as a generic medication.

  4. Discovery and development of beta-blockers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discovery_and_development...

    β adrenergic receptor antagonists (also called beta-blockers or β-blockers) were initially developed in the 1960s, for the treatment of angina pectoris but are now also used for hypertension, congestive heart failure and certain arrhythmias.

  5. Metoprolol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metoprolol

    Metoprolol is a beta blocker, or an antagonist of the β-adrenergic receptors. It is specifically a selective antagonist of the β 1-adrenergic receptor and has no intrinsic sympathomimetic activity. Metoprolol exerts its effects by blocking the action of certain neurotransmitters, specifically adrenaline and noradrenaline.

  6. Antiarrhythmic agent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antiarrhythmic_agent

    Class II agents. Class II agents are conventional beta blockers. They act by blocking the effects of catecholamines at the β 1 -adrenergic receptors, thereby decreasing sympathetic activity on the heart, which reduces intracellular cAMP levels and hence reduces Ca 2+ influx.

  7. Nebivolol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nebivolol

    Nebivolol is unique as a beta-blocker. Unlike carvedilol, it has a nitric oxide (NO)-potentiating, vasodilatory effect via stimulation of β3 receptors. Nebivolol induces vasodilation by stimulating the production of nitric oxide, a natural blood vessel relaxant.

  8. Atenolol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atenolol

    Atenolol is a beta blocker medication primarily used to treat high blood pressure and heart-associated chest pain. Atenolol, however, does not seem to improve mortality in those with high blood pressure. Other uses include the prevention of migraines and treatment of certain irregular heart beats.

  9. Carvedilol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carvedilol

    Carvedilol is a beta-blocker medication, that may be prescribed for the treatment of high blood pressure (hypertension) and chronic heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (also known as HFrEF or systolic heart failure).

  10. Sotalol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sotalol

    Sotalol is a non-selective β-adrenergic receptor blocker which has both class II and class III antiarrhythmic properties. Sotalol was first described in 1964 and came into medical use in 1974. It is available as a generic medication.
