Abstrakt: Introduction:β-Blockers have been shown to be effective in the treatment of both arterial hypertension and heart failure. However, slow titration of β-blockers over several weeks and rigorous supervision are essential to minimise antiadrenergic adverse effects in patients with heart failure. α1-Blockers are well tolerated and effectively lower blood pressure by reducing peripheral resistance.
