Popis: | 1. In a double-blind placebo controlled four-way crossover study the effects and dose response relationships of xamoterol were studied in nine patients with angina and dyspnoea secondary to chronic left ventricular dysfunction. The duration of exercise on a treadmill and heart rate were measured at the end of each phase of the study at 2 h and 24 h after dosing. 2. Xamoterol at 200 mg and 400 mg orally once daily had no effect on the mean resting heart rate but there was a small (5.7 beats min-1) but significant reduction in resting heart rate on 600 mg at 2-2.5 h after dosing. All three doses of xamoterol significantly reduced the maximum exercise heart rate at 2-2.5 h after dosing. 3. Xamoterol at all three doses significantly increased exercise duration at 2-2.5 h after dosing but not at 24 h. 4. Mean plasma xamoterol concentration at both 2-2.5 h and 24 h after dosing were dose related. The EC50 for xamoterol is 33.5 ng ml-1, where EC50 is the effective plasma concentration required to produce 50% of the maximum effect on exercise heart rate. |
