Drug name
Description
Phenoxybenzamine HCl (Dibenzyline)   Adrenergic antagonist, covalently bonds to the receptor, treats pheochromacytoma  
🗑
Phentolamine (Regitine)   Incomplete and transient alpha-blocker, more potent than priscoline, used to treat pheochromacytoma  
🗑
Priscoline (Tolazoline)   Less potent incomplete and transient alpha blocker, used in persistent pulmonary hypertension in newborn infants, use with caution in patients with gastritis or peptic ulcer disease  
🗑
Prazosin HCl (Minipress)   Piperazinyl quinazoline alpha-antagonist, used in hypertension and benign prostatic hypertrophy  
🗑
Terazosin HCl (Hytrin)   Piperazinyl quinazoline alpha-antagonist, highly specific for alpha-1 receptors, more water soluble (higher bioavailability, longer half-life, and duration of action)  
🗑
Doxazosin mesylate (Cardura)   Piperazinyl quinazoline selective alpha-1 antagonist, treats hypertension  
🗑
Afluzosin HCl (Uroxatral)   Piperazinyl quinazoline selective alpha-1 antagonist, metabolized by CYP3A4, used to treat BPH  
🗑
Tamsulosin HCl (Flomax)   Non-piperazilyn quinazoline alpha-1 adrenergic antagonist, has a reduced incidence of vascular side effects, treats BPH, cannot be used to treat hypertension  
🗑
Yohimbine   Indole alpha antagonist, has alpha-2 and serotonergic antagonist activity, used to treat impotence and postural hypotension  
🗑
Propranolol HCl (Inderal)   Nonselective beta blocker, no sympathomimetic activity, lipophilic (CNS penetration, etc.), metabolized to naphtoxylactic acid, mainly used to treat hypertension  
🗑
Nadolol (Corgard)   Analogue of propranolol, nonselective beta blocker with no intrinsic sympathomimetic activity, less lipophilic, treats hypertension and chest pain  
🗑
Timolol maleate opthalmic solution (Timoptic)   Nonselective betea blocker, no sympathomimetic activity, lipophilic (systemic absorption), used to treat glaucoma  
🗑
Timolol maleate oral (Blocadren) Combination with HCTZ (Timolide)   Oral form of timolol, marketed for hypertension  
🗑
Pindolol (Visken)   Beta blocker with sympathomimetic activity, somewhat lipophilic, treats angina and hypertension  
🗑
Labetalol HCl (Normodyne, Trandate)   Nonselective beta blocker, has some alpha-1 antagonistic activity, some sympathomimetic activity, treats hypertension  
🗑
Metoprolol Tartrate (Lopressor) Metoprolol Succinate (Toprol XL)   Beta-1 selective antagonist, no intrinsic sympathomimetic activity, lipophilic, treats hypertension  
🗑
Atenolol (Tenormin)   Beta-1 selective antagonist, no intrinsic sympathomimetic activity, less lipophilic, treats hypertension  
🗑
Esmolol HCl (Bevibloc)   Beta-1 blocker with no intrinisc sympathomimetic activity, has a short half-life, used IV in emergencies involving atrial flutter, atrial fibrillation, or sinus tachycardia  
🗑
Acebutolol HCl (Sectral) converted to Diacetolol   Beta-1 selective antagonist, diacetolol is the more active compound, has a degree of sympathomimetic activity  
🗑
Carvedilol (Coreg)   S(-) isomer is a nonselective beta blocker, both enantiomers have alpha-blocking properties and thus vasodilatory activity, treats hypertension  
🗑
Careolol (Cartrol) Penbutolol sulfate (Levatol)   Nonselective beta antagonists with intrinsic sympathomimetic activity  
🗑
Levobunolol HCl (Betagan)   Nonselective beta blocker, used in treatment of glaucoma  
🗑
Betaxolol HCl (Betopic)   Beta-1 selective antagonist, used as antihypertensive and in treatment of glaucoma  
🗑
Bisprolol Fumarate (Zebeta)   Highly beta-1 selective antagonist, treats hypertension  
🗑
Sotalol (Betapace)   Nonselective beta blocker, structurally distinct from others, treats ventricular arrhythmias  
🗑
Propafenone HCl (Rythmol)   Weak beta blocker, has local anesthetic activity through blocking sodium ion channels, used as an antiarrhythmic  
🗑
Nebivolol (Bystolic)   Highly selective beta blocker (selects beta-1 over beta-2), less bronchoconstrictive effects, treats hypertension  
🗑
Theophylline Aminophylline   Inhibit phosphodiesterase enzyme and prevent conversion of c-AMP to 5`-AMP, cause bronchodilation  
🗑
