Homework Answers
Ans.
Beta-blockers are drugs that bind to beta-adrenoceptors and thereby block the binding of norepinephrine and epinephrine to these receptors. This inhibits normal sympathetic effects that act through these receptors. Therefore, beta-blockers are sympatholytic drugs.
the mechanism of action of beta blockers-
Beta blockers work by blocking the effects of the hormone epinephrine, also known as adrenaline. Beta blockers cause your heart to beat more slowly and with less force, which lowers blood pressure. Beta blockers also help open up your veins and arteries to improve blood flow.
Examples of beta blockers
- Acebutolol (Sectral)
- Atenolol (Tenormin)
- Bisoprolol (Zebeta)
- Metoprolol (Lopressor, Toprol XL)
- Nadolol (Corgard)
- Nebivolol (Bystolic)
- Propranolol (Inderal, InnoPran XL)
Common side effects of beta blockers include:
- Dizziness.
- Weakness.
- Drowsiness or fatigue.
- Cold hands and feet.
- Dry mouth, skin, or eyes.
- Headache.
- Upset stomach.
- Diarrhea or constipation.
