520 |a Beta blockers inhibit the chronotropic, inotropic, and vasoconstrictor responses to the catecholamines, epinephrine and norepinephrine by blocking beta receptors in the heart and vasculature. Beta blockers are used for various indications specific to each beta blocker and can include hypertension, chronic stable angina, atrial arrhythmias, asymptomatic and symptomatic heart failure, migraine, and secondary prevention post-myocardial infarction. The purpose of this review is to compare the efficacy, effectiveness, and harms of beta blockers
