Article Description

Given that the majority of hypertensives require more than one drug to control blood pressure, the pleitropic effects (especially anti-inflammatory effects) and favourable metabolic profile of nebivolol could make it an alternative drug regimen for hypertensives requiring beta-blocker treatment. Although standard beta-blockers seem to have a hard time at present, we are convinced that perhaps the new generation beta-blockers such as nebivolol might yet ‘rescue’ the reputation of beta blockers in the near-future.
