Brand | Generic | Action | Uses |
ApoTimol, NovoTImol | timolol | blocks stimulation of betaadrenergic receptor in vascular smoth muscle, slows conduction of the AV node | HTN, antiglaucoma |
Coreg | carvedilol | A mixture of nonselective βblocking and αblocking activity; decreases cardiac output, exerciseinduced tachycardia, reflex orthostatic tachycardia; causes reduction in peripheral vascular resistance and vasodilatation | HTN, CHF |
Tenormin | atenolol | Competitively blocks stimulation of βadrenergic receptor w/in vascular smooth muscle; produces neg chronotropic activity (decreases rate of SA node,increases recovery time), slows conduction of AV node, decreases HR, neg inotropic activity. | HTN, prophylaxis of angina pectoris |
Bystolic | nebivolol | Competitively blocks stimulation of βadrenergic receptor w/in vascular smooth muscle; produces neg chronotropic activity (decreases rate of SA node,increases recovery time), slows conduction of AV node, decreases HR, neg inotropic activity. | HTN |
Inderal | propranolol | Nonselective blocker with negative inotropic, chronotropic, dromotropic properties. | HTN, Chronic stable angina, Supraventricular dysrhythmias |
Lopressor | metoprolol | Lowers B/P by beta blocking effects; reduces elevated renin plasma levels; blocks beta2 adrenergic receptors in bronchial, vascular smooth muscle only at high doses, negative chronotropic effect | HTN |
