37
Q

beta blockers

A

  • bisoprolol (zebeta)
  • esmolol (brevibloc) - iv can be used for SVT, HTN emergency, tachycardia, HTN
  • metoprolol: lopressor is metoprolol tartrate (w food) and toprol xl is metoprolol succinate. IV available
  • nadolol (corgard) - same as atenolol
  • penbutolol (levatol_
  • pindolol
  • propanolol (hemangeol, inderal la/xl, innopran x)
  • sotalol (betaspace) - for ventricular arrythmias, do not sub betaspace for betaspace af
    -nebivolol (bystolic) - nitric oxide
  • carvedilol (coreg) - with food. start 3.125 mg BID for HF and 6.25 mg BID for HTN
  • labetolol (trandate)
38
