propranolol and Spasm

propranolol has been researched along with Spasm in 16 studies

Propranolol: A widely used non-cardioselective beta-adrenergic antagonist. Propranolol has been used for MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION; ARRHYTHMIA; ANGINA PECTORIS; HYPERTENSION; HYPERTHYROIDISM; MIGRAINE; PHEOCHROMOCYTOMA; and ANXIETY but adverse effects instigate replacement by newer drugs.
propranolol : A propanolamine that is propan-2-ol substituted by a propan-2-ylamino group at position 1 and a naphthalen-1-yloxy group at position 3.

Spasm: An involuntary contraction of a muscle or group of muscles. Spasms may involve SKELETAL MUSCLE or SMOOTH MUSCLE.

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"A case of propranolol overdose complicated by esophageal spasm preventing extrication of an orogastric lavage tube and relieved by intravenous glucagon is presented."7.67Esophageal spasm following propranolol overdose relieved by glucagon. ( Barish, RA; Browne, BJ; Panos, RJ; Tso, E, 1986)
"Nifedipine was evaluated in the management of eight patients with intractable coronary arterial spasm."7.66Nifedipine therapy for refractory coronary arterial spasm. ( Heupler, FA; Proudfit, WL, 1979)
"A case of propranolol overdose complicated by esophageal spasm preventing extrication of an orogastric lavage tube and relieved by intravenous glucagon is presented."3.67Esophageal spasm following propranolol overdose relieved by glucagon. ( Barish, RA; Browne, BJ; Panos, RJ; Tso, E, 1986)
"Nifedipine was evaluated in the management of eight patients with intractable coronary arterial spasm."3.66Nifedipine therapy for refractory coronary arterial spasm. ( Heupler, FA; Proudfit, WL, 1979)
"Coronary spasm is due to strong contraction of coronary vascular smooth muscle cells which is triggered by an increase of intracellular calcium ions; hyperventilation plus TRIS-buffer infusion induces coronary spasm by decreasing hydrogen ions which antagonize the action of calcium ions."1.26Pathophysiology and treatment of coronary arterial spasm.
