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 cell surface receptor kinase (GRK5) (OMIM) that confers a natural "genetic beta-blockade".[4]
Variation adrenergic receptor genotype may also influence effectiveness.[5]
Availability
Generically available beta-blockers include:[6][7]
- Betaxolol
- Nadolol
- Propranolol
- Timolol
Generic beta-blockers with beta 1-selectivity:[2]
- Atenolol (less lipid soluble; renally excreted)
- Bisoprolol
- Metoprolol (hepatically metabolized by cytochrome P-450 2D6 allele)
Generic beta-blockers with intrinsic sympathomimetic activity (less resting bradycardia and lipid changes):[6]
- Acebutolol
- Pindolol
Generic beta-blockers with alpha blocking activity (more orthostatic hypotension):[6]
- Carvedilol
- Labetalol
Clinical uses
The individual beta-blockers have been compared in the treatment of various diseases.[8]
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
Two cohort studies suggest that atenolol and carvedilol may be more effect than metoprolol for the treatment of heart failure.[9][10]
