metoprolol and Diabetic Retinopathy

metoprolol has been researched along with Diabetic Retinopathy in 1 studies

Metoprolol: A selective adrenergic beta-1 blocking agent that is commonly used to treat ANGINA PECTORIS; HYPERTENSION; and CARDIAC ARRHYTHMIAS.
metoprolol : A propanolamine that is 1-(propan-2-ylamino)propan-2-ol substituted by a 4-(2-methoxyethyl)phenoxy group at position 1.

Diabetic Retinopathy: Disease of the RETINA as a complication of DIABETES MELLITUS. It is characterized by the progressive microvascular complications, such as ANEURYSM, interretinal EDEMA, and intraocular PATHOLOGIC NEOVASCULARIZATION.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" The diabetic and control non-diabetic rats were assigned randomly to receive no anti-hypertension treatment, or to be treated with the angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB), valsartan (40 mg/kg/d) or the beta-blocker, metoprolol (50 mg/kg/day)."3.78Aquaporin changes during diabetic retinopathy in rats are accelerated by systemic hypertension and are linked to the renin-angiotensin system.
