Antihypertensive effect of labetalol, a new alpha- and beta-adrenergic blocking agent
Abstract
Labetalol (AH5158) a new alpha- and beta-adrenergic blocking agent was given to 12 hypertensive patients for an average of 7 months. Statistically significant and clinically relevant reductions of blood pressure both in the recumbent and standing positions were observed. Side effects were few and the absence of postural hypotension was noted.
