    Product Description

    (±)-Atenolol is an antagonist of the β1-adrenergic receptor (β1-AR; Ki = 1.14 µM).1 It is selective for β1-ARs over β2-ARs (Ki = 48.7 µM). (±)-Atenolol (200 mg/kg per day) delays the onset of hypertension in spontaneously hypertensive rats.2 Formulations containing atenolol have been used in the treatment of high blood pressure.

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
