  • Title: Multiple action compounds in angina pectoris.
    Author: Kelly DT, Freedman SB.
    Journal: Z Kardiol; 1989; 78 Suppl 3():16-20. PubMed ID: 2573212.
    Abstract:
    Carvedilol--a vasodilating beta-blocker has been shown in multicentre trials to be as effective as standard beta-blockers in improving exercise tolerance in patients with angina pectoris and it is more effective than nifedipine. The side effects are less than conventional beta-blockers and nifedipine. Carvedilol is an effective anti-anginal therapy and improves the quality of life.
