mechanism:
None (7) ·
Selective alpha-1 adrenergic receptor antagonist. Lowers peripheral vascular resistance via vasodilation; in the CNS, blunts noradrenergic hyperarousal thought to drive trauma-related nightmares. (1) ·
The d-enantiomer is a highly β1-selective antagonist; the l-enantiomer triggers endothelial nitric-oxide–mediated vasodilation. Unique among beta blockers for this NO mechanism. (1) ·

'"`UNIQ--vote-00000053-QINU`"' Also raises bradykinin, contributing to vasodilation and the characteristic dry cough. Renally cleared, unmetabolized; dose-adjust by eGFR'"`UNIQ--ref-00000054-QINU`"'. (1) ·
