Abstract | This study will be helpful to detect the dosage, frequency and duration of beta blockers which is prescribed for heart failure patients that is followed the guideline. The goal of the study was to describe the prescription pattern of beta blockers in patients diagnosed with heart failure. Hypothyroidism, hypertension, type 2 diabetes mellitus patients are very prone to get Heart failure. Beta blockers should be prescribed, respective with the symptoms that occurred specifically to a particular patient. This study helped to detect the parameters of prescribing beta blockers in different symptoms and co morbidities. A Total of 39 patients, among them It was observed that (46.05%) patients having heart failure were from age group 48-57, followed by (2.5%) of 78-87 age group, of which the males (58.96%) proportion where seems more than the females (41.04%). The prescription pattern for heart failure patients were found as 100% Beta adrenergic blockers, such as metoprolol-65%, bisoprolol-22%, Carvedilol-15% were given. It is evident that the beta blockers are mainly prescribed according to the symptoms, carvedilol exhibits a more pronounced BP lowering effect as a consequence of its α1- receptor blocking activities and thus causes more frequent dizziness and hypotension. In patients predisposed to symptomatic hypotension, metoprolol succinate may be the more desirable whereas in patients with uncontrolled hypertension, carvedilol may be preferred. A selective β1-blocker such as metoprolol succinate is a reasonable option for patients with reactive airway disease. |
