PRESCRIPTION DRUG

indicaciones terapéuticas:

Intravenous administration is usually reserved for life-threatening arrhythmias or those occurring under anesthesia. 1.  Supraventricular arrhythmias Intravenous propranolol is indicated for the short-term treatment of supraventricular tachycardia, including Wolff‑Parkinson‑White syndrome and thyrotoxicosis, to decrease ventricular rate. Use in patients with atrial flutter or atrial fibrillation should be reserved for arrythmias unresponsive to standard therapy or when more prolonged control is required. Reversion to normal sinus rhythm has occasionally been observed, predominantly in patients with sinus or atrial tachycardia. 2.  Ventricular tachycardias With the exception of those induced by catecholamines or digitalis, propranolol is not the drug of first choice. In critical situations when cardioversion techniques or other drugs are not indicated or are not effective, propranolol may be considered. If, after consideration of the risks involved, propranolol is used, it shoul

CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
GENERAL
Propranolol is a nonselective beta-adrenergic receptor blocking agent
possessing no
other autonomic nervous system activity. It specifically competes with
beta-adrenergic
receptor stimulating agents for available receptor sites. When access
to beta‑receptor
sites is blocked by propranolol, chronotropic, inotropic, and
vasodilator responses to
beta-adrenergic stimulation are decreased proportionately. At doses
greater than
required for beta blockade, propranolol also exerts a quinidine-like
or anesthetic-like
membrane action, which affects the cardiac action potential. The
significance of the
membrane action in the treatment of arrhythmias is uncertain.
MECHANISM OF ACTION
The effects of propranolol are due to selective blockade of
beta-adrenergic receptors,

leaving alpha-adrenergic responses intact. There are two
well-characterized subtypes of
beta receptors (beta
and beta
); propranolol interacts with both subtypes equally.
Beta
-adrenergic receptors are found primarily in the heart. Blockade of
cardiac beta
-
adrenergic receptors leads to a decrease in the activity of both
normal and ectopic
pacemaker cells and a decrease in A-V nodal conduction velocity. All
of these actions can
contribute to an
