β –blockers is one of a class of drugs most often used for the management of cardiac arrhythmias following heart attacks.
β -blockers are widely used in conventional medicine to treat high blood pressure (hypertension), insufficient blood flow to the heart (angina) and heart rhythm disturbances (arrhythmias).
They are called β-blockers because they block the effect of natural stimulants produced in the human body on β-receptors located in the heart, lung and blood vessels.
β -blockers limit the heart rate and reduce anxiety and tremor.
β-blockers have been shown to prevent fatal and non fatal attacks and sudden cardiac death. A decrease in heart rate increases the diastolic interval drug which the coronary arteries are filled with blood.
β-blockers decrease the force and velocity of cardiac contraction and decrease the heart rate pressure product.
The drugs are prescribed to control anxiety and hypertension and to treat a variety of cardiac conditions, including anginal pain and cardiac arrhythmias.
