Note

  • do not confuse with ADRENERGIC AGONISTS

Scope note

  • Drugs that bind to but do not activate ADRENERGIC RECEPTORS. Adrenergic antagonists block the actions of the endogenous adrenergic transmitters EPINEPHRINE and NOREPINEPHRINE.

History note

  • 95; ADRENERGIC-BLOCKING AGENTS was see SYMPATHOLYTICS 1978-94; ANTIADRENERGIC AGENTS was see SYMPATHOLYTICS 1975-94
