blockers, a very challenging therapeutic strategy, in patients with severe heart failure. The failing human heart is adrenergically activated, which helps in maintaining an adequate cardiac performance in the short term by increasing contractility and heart rate.[1]However, this chronic hyperadrenergic...
Beta-blockers, which hitherto have been considered contraindicated for treatment of congestive heart failure, have recently been accepted for symptomatic treatment. The rationale for beta-blockers has become evident thanks to the concept of neuroendocrine activation in congestive heart failure and progress...
While beta-blockers increase the risk of intrauterine growth restriction, they can be used in hemodynamically stable patients, preferably beta 1 selective beta-blockers such as metoprolol succinate. Mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists should be avoided in pregnancy and breastfeeding.14 Bromocriptine, in...

beta-blockers induce positive prognostic effects in patients with HFpEF by helping to reduce HR. In a pre-specified sub-analysis of the SENIORS trial, no significant differences were observed regarding the prognostic impact of nebivolol, a β1-selective beta-blocker, in patients with impaired and...
Learn about the mechanism of action of beta blockers. Discover the differences between cardioselective beta blockers vs. non-cardioselective beta blockers. Related to this Question What is the effect of exercise on blood pressure? On pulse rate?
Significant bradycardia can occur, leading to fatigue, hypotension and dizziness. “Cardio-selective” beta-blockers target primarily beta-1 receptors. Asthma can be exacerbated, especially with non-cardioselective beta-blockers that antagonize beta-2 receptors. Beta-blocker overdose is trea...
Switching from a selective to non-selective beta blocker (carvedilol) in patients with heart failure with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease resulted in short term reduction in aortic augmentation index (AIx) as well as NT-proBNP, an established prognostic marker in heart failure, with no change...
Non-selective beta blockers, in particular propranolol, should be prescribed for symptom control in patients with hyperthyroidism because they have a more direct effect on hypermetabolism. However, propranolol is not recommended for the treatment of HFrEF and no current specific recommendation exists on...
