Used for management of hypertension (high blood pressure) and angina pectoris (chest pain). May also be used for certain cardiac arrhythmias in some regions.
Acts as a non-selective beta-adrenergic receptor antagonist, blocking both beta-1 receptors in the heart (reducing heart rate and contractility) and beta-2 receptors in blood vessels and lungs.
Contraindicated in patients with severe bradycardia, asthma, or severe COPD. Should be used cautiously in patients with diabetes as beta-blockers may mask hypoglycemic symptoms. Not recommended for abrupt discontinuation.
