- affect B1 &B2
- blocks the effect of epi and norepinephrine which reduces the HR
- dilates blood vessels, which reduces BP
- slows the SA node which initiates the heart beat

-acebutolol
- betaxolol
-esmolol
5

- 1 localizes the smooth muscle, 2 decreases cardiac workload, HR, and cardiac contractions
