D010869	Pindolol	A moderately lipophilic beta blocker (ADRENERGIC BETA-ANTAGONISTS). It is non-cardioselective and has intrinsic sympathomimetic actions, but little membrane-stabilizing activity. (From Martindale, The Extra Pharmocopoeia, 30th ed, p638)	Prindolol,LB-46,Visken,LB 46,LB46
D011217	Practolol	A beta-1 adrenergic antagonist that has been used in the emergency treatment of CARDIAC ARRYTHMIAS.	Dalzic,Eralzdin Practolol,ICI-50172,ICI 50172,ICI50172,Practolol, Eralzdin
