Abstract
In summary, carvedilol lowers blood pressure effectively. There is a decrease in left ventricular mass. Carvedilol has a good metabolic profile and seems to improve insulin sensitivity. Through its effects on the endothelial function and its antioxidative properties carvedilol has positive effects on the atherosclerotic process. Carvedilol also decreases microalbuminuria. In several aspects carvedilol differs from the conventional beta-blocking drugs, and some of these effects are now being investigated in new studies.
