The biological properties of the optical isomers of propranolol and their effects on cardiac arrhythmias

TL;DR: Both isomers of propranolol were capable of preventing adrenaline‐induced cardiac arrhythmias in cats anaesthetized with halothane, but the mean dose of (–)‐pro Pranolol was 0.09 ± 0.02 mg/kg whereas that of (+), which attenuated the responses to isoprenaline was 4.2 ± 1.2mg/kg.

Clinical pharmacology of beta-receptor-blocking drugs.

TL;DR: This review does not cover the whole of this literature as it is particularly concerned with the effects of beta‐blocking drugs in man, and summarizes the adverse reactions so far reported with these drugs.

The antiarrhythmic actions of beta adrenergic blocking agents

TL;DR: Pronethalol and N-isopropyl- p -nitrophenyl-ethanolamine (INPEA) were found to antagonize the inotropic and chronotropic actions of epinephrine and isoproterenol as well as the vasodilator action of the latter, thus confirming the beta adrenergic blocking actions of the two agents.
