Beta-receptor antagonists

Effect on endocrine function Catecholamines are important endogenous regulators of hormone secretion from a number of glands. Insulin secretion is stimulated by beta receptors and inhibited by a2-receptors. Similarly, renin secretion is stimulated by Pj and inhibited by receptors indeed, beta-receptor antagonists may lower plasma renin at least part by this mechanism. [Pg.136]

Beta-receptor antagonists have been found to diminish portal vein pressure in patients with cirrhosis. There is evidence that both propranolol and nadolol decrease the incidence of the first episode of bleeding from esophageal varices and decrease the mortality rate associated with bleeding in patients with cirrhosis. Nadolol in combination with isosorbide mononitrate appears to be more efficacious than sclerotherapy in preventing re-bleeding in patients who have previously bled from esophageal varices. [Pg.220]

The pharmacology of these agents is discussed in Chapter 10 Adrenoceptor Antagonist Drugs. Beta-receptor antagonists reduce portal venous pressures via a decrease in portal venous inflow. [Pg.1508]

In general, beta-receptor antagonists have a detrimental effect on the serum lipid profile. Triglyceride levels are sharply increased, as are low-density lipoproteins (LDL) levels, while high-density lipoproteins (HDL) levels may be decreased. This effect is lessened, or even reversed, with drugs that have intrinsic sympathomimetic activity (e.g., pindolol, acebutolol). [Pg.102]

This drug, while it is a beta receptor antagonist, has intrinsic sympathomimetic activity. [Pg.103]
