Adrenergic beta-receptor blockaders (beta-blockers) are "drugs that bind to but do not activate beta-adrenergic receptors thereby blocking the actions of beta-adrenergic agonists. Adrenergic beta-antagonists are used for treatment of hypertension, cardiac arrhythmias, angina pectoris, glaucoma, migraine headaches, and anxiety".[1]

Beta-blockers vary within the class regarding their properties. Beta-blockers that have low intrinsic sympathomimetic activity (ISA), low membrane stabilizing activity, high beta 1-selectivity, and high lipophilicity may be more effective.[2]

Pharmacogenomics

Regarding the treatment of heart failure, there is conflicting evidence whether beta-blockers are as effective in African-American patients as in Anglo patients.[3] This may be due to a polymorphism in African-American patients of the G-protein-coupled receptor kinase (GRK5) (OMIM) that confers a natural "genetic beta-blockade".[4]

Variation adrenergic receptor genotype may also influence effectiveness.[5]

Beta-blockers such as metoprolol that are metabolized by cytochrome P-450 2D6 allele and may have more drug interactions[6] and inherited variations in metabolism.[7]

Classification

Generically available beta-blockers include:[8][9]

Cardioselective / beta 1-selectivity

Generic beta-blockers with beta 1-selectivity:[8][10]

Non-generic:

  • Betaxolol

Non-selective

Non-selective drugs include propranolol, timolol, nadolol, pindolol, penbutolol, and carteolol.

Intrinsic sympathomimetic activity

Generic beta-blockers with intrinsic sympathomimetic activity (less resting bradycardia and lipid changes):[8]

  • Acebutolol
  • Pindolol

Non-generic:

  • Penbutolol

Beta-blockers with alpha blocking activity

Generic beta-blockers with alpha blocking activity (more orthostatic hypotension):[8]

Clinical uses

The individual beta-blockers have been compared in the treatment of various diseases.[13]

Coronary heart disease

For more information, see: Coronary heart disease.

A meta-analysis has concluded that metoprolol may be the best beta-blocker for secondary prevention of myocardial infarction.[2]

Heart failure

For more information, see: Heart failure.

Two cohort studies suggest that atenolol and carvedilol may be more effect than metoprolol for the treatment of heart failure.[14][15]

Hypertension

For more information, see: Hypertension.

A meta-analysis has concluded that the more the drug lowers the pulse rate, the lower the benefit of the drug.[16][17]

Beta-blockers may be less effective than diuretics in the treatment of elderly patients with hypertensiondue to reduced ability to prevent coronary heart disease.[18]
