4 days ago · Toxic Mechanism: As predicted beta-blockers competitively block beta-1 and beta-2 receptors. This results in decreased production of intracellular cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) with a resultant blunting of multiple metabolic and cardiovascular effects of circulating catecholamines.

Debate the presentation of mild to severe BPH for diagnosis. Detail the appropriate treatments for the various presentations of BPH.
5 days ago · Propranolol is a nonselective beta-adrenoceptor antagonist, otherwise known as a beta-blocker. It works by preventing hormones, specifically beta-1 and beta-2, from interacting...
1 day ago · Beta-blockers are a well-established class of drugs primarily used to manage various cardiovascular conditions. Metoprolol Succinate is specifically formulated as an extended-release version of Metoprolol, providing the benefit of once-daily dosing, which can enhance patient compliance. The primary action of Metoprolol Succinate targets the ...
3 days ago · The annual rate for the primary end point (new acute myocardial infarction or death from any cause) was 2.5% for patients assigned to no beta-blocker, approximately one third of that predicted.
2 days ago · First, 1,151 patients on dobutamine and not on beta-blockers on the day of heart failure admission (day 0) were identified. Among 1,095 who met eligibility criteria, patients who eventually initiated beta-blockers under dobutamine infusion by day 7 (early initiation strategy) were 1:1 matched to those who did not (conservative strategy).
5 days ago · By inhibiting the action of adrenaline, beta-blockers reduce the overall “fight, flight, or freeze response” response, slowing down the heart rate, reducing blood pressure, and easing tremors...
