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 agonist agents for
available receptor sites. When access to beta-receptor sites is
blocked by propranolol, the
chronotropic, inotropic, and vasodilator responses to beta-adrenergic
stimulation are decreased
proportionately. At dosages 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 mechanism of the antihypertensive effect of propranolol has not
been established. Factors that may
contribute to the antihypertensive action include: (1) decreased
cardiac output, (2) inhibition of renin
release by the kidneys,
