چکیده
Previous studies have shown that labetalol, a new alpha- and beta-adrenergic antagonist, is relatively safe for the treatment of hypertension in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). This multicenter study was designed to evaluate its effects in hypertensive patients with asthma and propranolol sensitivity. Hypertension was successfully controlled in 18 of 21 patients who received labetalol in increasing doses, up to 1,200 mg/day. The decrease in mean FEV1 (1.5 percent) two hours after the highest dose of labetalol was not statistically significant, although there was a gradual decline in mean baseline FEV1 during the four-week treatment period. Antihypertensive agents other than adrenergic antagonists should be considered for the management of hypertension in patients with asthma, especially those with marked reversibility of airflow. If treatment with beta-adrenergic antagonists is indicated, labetalol is recommended over other currently available agents.

Comparison of Effects of Labetalol and Nitroglycerine on Intraoperative Blood Loss and Surgical Field Quality in Rhinoplasty Surgery
BACKGROUND Rhinoplasty is one of the most common surgeries of the plastic surgery and as well as ear, throat and nose. Intra-operative bleeding during surgery is one of the most important factors that may impair the surgeon’s job. Providing a clean blood-free surgical filed makes the operation faster, easier and with a better quality. One way to achieve this goal is to induce hypotension. This...

1. Labetalol, a compound with both alpha- and beta-adrenoreceptor-blocking actions, was given intravenously (1-5-2-0 mg/kg) in twenty recumbent hypertensive patients. 2. There was a rapid reduction in systolic and diastolic pressures in all, maintained up to 24 h in some subjects. 3. Severe hypotension was not seen in recumbent subjects, but postural hypotension was common. 4. Labetalol caused ...

Background: Control of bleeding during dacryocystorhinostomy (DCR) surgery is of particular importance and controlling the body's hemodynamic responses to stress effectively reduces the amount of bleeding during surgery and improves the surgical area. Therefore, in this study, we aimed to investigate the effect of two-drug combinations Labetalol-Hydralazine and Labetalol-Trinitroglycerin on hem...
