Usefulness of intravenous metoprolol to prevent syncope induced by head-up tilt

J Kluger et al. Am J Cardiol. .

Abstract

Intravenous metoprolol was found to be significantly more effective than placebo in preventing head-up tilt-table induced neurally mediated syncope. The reproducibility of acute tilt-table testing is only 63% and suggests caution in the interpretation of acute drug testing during tilt-table studies.
