This document discusses non-selective beta-blockers, which block the action of catecholamines mediated through beta receptors. It describes their pharmacological actions on the heart, respiratory tract, eyes, and other effects. Specific non-selective beta-blockers discussed include sotalol, nadolol, pindolol, oxprenolol, and penbutalol. The advantages of cardio-selective beta-blockers over non-selective ones are also summarized. Finally, it briefly discusses third generation beta-blockers such as carvedilol and cartelol that have additional vasodilatory properties.
