Front
Propranolol is a non-selective beta blocker which effectively lowers heart rate, cardiac contractility, and conduction velocity; but is avoided among patients with co-occurring asthma. Why?
Back
Propranolol also causes bronchoconstriction, but may be resolved by immediate administration of FAs like epinephrine (for the heart) or full beta agonists like salbutamol (for the lungs)
