Usage: Carvedilol powder is a non-selective beta blocker/alpha-1 blocker indicated in the treatment of mild to moderate congestive heart failure (CHF).
Carvedilol is a AR (a1 and ß-adrenergic receptor) antagonist with antioxidant properties. Studies show that the receptors a1D-AR and
a1B-AR have a greater affinity for Carvedilol in comparison to the
receptor ß1-AR subtype. Carvedilol has been observed to block the
oscillatory intracellular calcium changes induced by a1D-AR and a1B-AR,
and shown to have a higher oxidative effect than Atenolol (sc-204895).
The S(-) enantiomer of Carvedilol acts as a ß-blocker, and the R(+) and S
(-) enantionmers both block the a1. Carvedilol is an inhibitor of
a1B-AR, ß1-AR, ß2-AR and a1D-AR.
