  2. History: Sir James Black and Propranolol
    1. Sir James Black won 1988 Nobel Prize for Propranolol
    2. Synthesized Propranolol first in the 1960's
    3. Revolutionized cardiovascular medicine
  3. Indications
    1. Hypertension
    2. Atrial Fibrillation Rate Control
    3. Coronary Artery Disease without prior Myocardial Infarction
      1. Consider to reduce Anginal symptoms and improve Exercise tolerance
    4. Myocardial Infarction without Congestive Heart Failure
      1. Continue for at least 2-3 years after Myocardial Infarction
    5. Stable Congestive Heart Failure (Carvedilol, Metoprolol, Bisoprolol)
      1. Continue Beta Blocker indefinately
    6. Arrhythmia refractory to other modality

      1. See Intraocular Beta Blocker
  4. Contraindications
    1. Reactive Airway Disease and Obstructive Lung Disease (Asthma, COPD)
      1. Cardioselective Beta Blockers (e.g. Metoprolol) are not contraindicated in COPD
        1. Do not reduce effectiveness of beta agonists (Bronchodilators)
        2. Recommended for decreased mortality, decreased Tachycardia with beta agonists
      2. Avoid non-selective Beta Blockers (Carvedilol, Propranolol)
      3. See Bronchospasm under adverse effects below
    2. Acute Congestive Heart Failure exascerbation (decompensated CHF)
    3. Concurrent Non-Dihydropyridine Calcium Channel Blocker (e.g. Diltiazem, Verapamil) use
      1. Relative contraindication (risk of AV Block, Bradycardia)
  5. Precautions
    1. Abrupt discontinuation is associated with exacerbation of Angina and risk of MI (FDA black box warning)
    2. Taper over one to two weeks
  6. Mechanism: General
    1. Beta Adrenergic Receptor Antagonist
    2. Inhibits effects of circulating Catecholamines
    3. Blocks Beta Adrenergic Receptors
      1. Beta-1 Adrenergic Receptors (Selective Beta Blockers primarily inhibit B1)
        1. Cardiac Muscle (primarily contraction)
        2. Allow Calcium entry into cells (cAMP mediated)
        3. Inotropic and chronotropic effects
      2. Beta-2 Adrenergic Receptors
        1. Smooth Muscle and Bronchioles
      3. Beta-3 Adrenergic Receptors
        1. Lipolysis
  7. Mechanism: Cardiovascular Specific (Beta-1 Adrenergic Receptor blockade)
    1. General Cardiac Effects
      1. Negative Inotrope
        1. Reduces Myocardial Contractility
      2. Negative Chronotrope
        1. Reduces Heart Rate
      3. Reduces Blood Pressure
      4. Reduces Myocardial Oxygen Demand
    2. Antiarrhythmic effects
      1. Seen with non-selective Beta Blockers (Propranolol)
      2. Controls Catecholamine stimulated Arrhythmias
        1. Recurrent Ventricular Tachycardia
        2. Recurrent Ventricular Fibrillation
      3. Controls Myocardial Ischemia related Arrhythmias
      4. Reduces AV Nodal Conduction
        1. Slows ventricular response

    3. Myocardial protection
      1. Reduces Myocardial Infarction size
      2. Prevents re-infarction after Thrombolytic
  8. Mechanism: Non-Selective effects (non-cardiovascular effects)
    1. Beta 2 Adrenergic Receptor blockade
      1. Results in bronchoconstriction
        1. Beta 2 Adrenergic Receptors affect Bronchiole and Smooth Muscles
      2. Non-Selective Beta Blockers (e.g. Propranolol)
      3. Selective Beta Blockers lose selectivity at high dose and in Overdose
        1. High dose Metoprolol (over 200 mg/day)
        2. High dose Esmolol (over 300 ug/kg/min)
    2. Beta 3 Adrenergic Receptor blockade
      1. Lipolysis inhibited
  9. Adverse Effects
    1. SA and AV nodal blockade
      1. Avoid in over age 75 unless secondary indication
      2. Do not use with Calcium Channel Blockers
    2. Hypotension or Orthostasis
    3. Congestive Heart Failure
      1. Treat with vasodilators and Diuretics with inotropes
    4. Bradycardia
      1. Treat with Atropine, Transcutaneous Pacing, Dopamine
    5. Bronchospasm
      1. Treat with Sympathomimetics and Aminophylline
      2. Unlikely to occur in cardioselective Beta Blockers at standard doses
        1. Study looked at Atenolol, Metoprolol, Bisoprolol
        2. First dose may lower FEV1 (responds to Albuterol)
        3. Continuous use does not impair lung function
        4. Salpeter (2002) Ann Intern Med 137:715-25 [PubMed]
    6. Major Depression exacerbation

Atenolol (C0004147)

Definition (MSH) A cardioselective beta-1 adrenergic blocker possessing properties and potency similar to PROPRANOLOL, but without a negative inotropic effect.
Definition (CHV) a drug that treats rapid heart rate and high blood pressure
Definition (NCI) A synthetic isopropylamino-propanol derivative used as an antihypertensive, hypotensive and antiarrhythmic Atenolol acts as a peripheral, cardioselective beta blocker specific for beta-1 adrenergic receptors, without intrinsic sympathomimetic effects. It reduces exercise heart rates and delays atrioventricular conduction, with overall oxygen requirements decreasing. (NCI04)
Definition (CSP) l-p-carbamoylmethylphenoxy-3-isopropylamino -2-propanol, is a peripheral beta blocker used as an antihypertensive; propranolol, by contrast, also has CNS effects.

Nadolol (C0027302)

Definition (NCI) A non-selective beta-adrenergic antagonist with antihypertensive and antiarrhythmic activities. Nadolol competitively blocks beta-1 adrenergic receptors located in the heart and vascular smooth muscle, inhibiting the activities of the catecholamines epinephrine and norepinephrine and producing negative inotropic and chronotropic effects. This agent exhibits antiarrhythmic activity via the impairment of atrioventricular (AV) node conduction and a corresponding reduction in sinus rate. In the kidney, inhibition of the beta-2 receptor within the juxtaglomerular apparatus results in the inhibition of renin production and a subsequent reduction in angiotensin II and aldosterone levels, thus inhibiting angiotensin II-dependent vasoconstriction and aldosterone-dependent water retention.
Definition (MSH) A non-selective beta-adrenergic antagonist with a long half-life, used in cardiovascular disease to treat arrhythmias, angina pectoris, and hypertension. Nadolol is also used for MIGRAINE DISORDERS and for tremor.

Timolol (C0040233)

Definition (NCI) A propanolamine derivative and a non-selective beta-adrenergic antagonist with antihypertensive property. Timolol competitively binds to beta-1-adrenergic receptors in the heart and vascular smooth muscle and beta-2-receptors in the bronchial and vascular smooth muscle, resulting in a decrease in beta-adrenergic stimulation. Beta-1-receptor blockade results in a decrease in resting and exercise heart rate and cardiac output, a decrease in both systolic and diastolic blood pressure, and, possibly, a reduction in reflex orthostatic hypotension. Beta-2-blockade results in an increase in peripheral vascular resistance. The ultimate results include vasodilation, and negative chronotropic and inotropic cardiac effects. In addition, timolol reduces intra-ocular pressure possibly by decreasing aqueous humor production by reduction of blood flow to the ciliary processes and cAMP synthesis.
Definition (MSH) A beta-adrenergic antagonist similar in action to PROPRANOLOL. The levo-isomer is the more active. Timolol has been proposed as an antihypertensive, antiarrhythmic, antiangina, and antiglaucoma agent. It is also used in the treatment of MIGRAINE DISORDERS and tremor.
