Highly β1-selective adrenergic antagonist. Greater selectivity than metoprolol or atenolol. (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-000004A9-QINU`"' Modest HDL rise; LDL effects mixed. Renally cleared; combination with statin carries elevated myopathy risk (greater for gemfibrozil than fenofibrate, but caution still warranted)'"`UNIQ--ref-000004AA-QINU`"'. (1)
