Summary:A Toxicological Review of Beta-Adrenergic Blockers. JACKSON, C. D., AND FISHBEIN, L (1986). Fundam. Appl. Toxicol. 6, 395–422. The use of various beta-adrenergic blockers has become extensive as they have been found to be efficacious in the treatment of a number of cardiovascular problems including cardiac arrhythmias, angina pectoris, and hypertension. The widespread and chronic use of these drugs has generated a concern for their potential chronic toxicity. Eighteen beta-adrenergic blockers have been reviewed and the available literature pertaining to their potential carcinogenicity, mutagenicity, and teratogenicity has been summarized and compared.
