Description

Exaprolol is a beta blocker with vasodilating properties. It acts primarily as a selective beta1-adrenergic receptor antagonist, but also exhibits some beta2-blocking activity. Exaprolol is synthesized via a multi-step process involving the reaction of an appropriate amine with a substituted benzoic acid derivative. It is used in the treatment of hypertension, angina pectoris, and other cardiovascular conditions. Exaprolol's vasodilating effects are attributed to its ability to block the release of vasoconstricting substances such as renin and norepinephrine. This action contributes to its effectiveness in lowering blood pressure and improving blood flow to the heart. Exaprolol is studied to further understand its potential therapeutic applications in various cardiovascular diseases and to investigate its safety and efficacy in different patient populations.'

Research Excerpts

Effects

Exaprolol has the appropriate lipophilicity for entry of the CNS and is claimed to be a very potent beta-adrenoceptor antagonist. It also has direct electrophysiological effects on cardiac (Purkinje) tissue, reducing the rate of rise of phase 0 of the action potential.
