Notas:
- The number of HF patients studied with ?-blockade actually exceeds the number of HF patients studied with ACE inhibition. ?-blockers have been evaluated in more than 10,000 HF patients in over 20 published clinical trials.1
- Only metoprolol succinate and carvedilol are approved for treatment in heart failure.
- Generic metoprolol and atenolol have not been proven effective in heart failure. (Please note: generic atenolol and metoprolol are not described on this slide.)
