- Inhibition of β1 and β1 adrenergic receptors
- Lack of intrinsic sympathomimetic and membrane stabilizing activity
- Decreased heart rate
- Decreased myocardial contractility
- Diminution of tonic sympathetic outflow to the periphery from cerebral vasomotor centers
- Suppression of renin activity
- Vasodilation and decreased peripheral vascular resistance
- Metabolism by glucuronidation and hydroxylation by CYP2D6
- Plasma protein binding of approximately 98%
- Absorption similar to an oral solution
- Metabolism via direct glucuronidation, N-dealkylation, and oxidation via cytochrome P450 2D6
