Celiprolol, a drug from the group of β -adrenergic receptor blocker, is used to treat high blood pressure and coronary heart disease.
Clinical information
Celiprolol is a medium long-acting antagonist at β1 -adrenoceptors and a partial agonist at β2 -adrenoceptors, which has a half -life of four to twelve hours and a duration of action of up to one day. The bioavailability of celiprolol is 50%. As a β2 - adrenoceptor agonist celiprolol leads active vasodilation of peripheral vessels. Excretion is mainly via the kidneys. The application resulting from a severe renal impairment is contraindicated.
Other Information
The peculiarity of celiprolol and some other beta-blockers ( acebutolol, oxprenolol and pindolol ) is the intrinsic sympathomimetic activity (ISA, see Intrinsic activity).
