Pharmacology

  • β adrenergic receptor blocking agent
  • Inhibits both β1 and β1 adrenergic receptors
  • Lacks 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
  • Metabolized by glucuronidation and hydroxylation by CYP2D6
  • Mean peak plasma nebivolol concentrations occur approximately 1.5 to 4 hours post-dosing
  • Predominantly metabolized via direct glucuronidation
  • Concomitant administration with digoxin and warfarin
