Nadolol
Nadolol is a non-selective beta-adrenergic blocker used primarily for the treatment of hypertension (high blood pressure) and angina pectoris (chest pain due to heart-related issues). It helps reduce heart rate and myocardial contractility, leading to lower blood pressure and decreased oxygen demand by the heart.

Comprehensive Drug Guide
How Does Nadolol Work?
Nadolol works by blocking beta-1 and beta-2 adrenergic receptors in the heart and blood vessels. This action leads to a decrease in heart rate, reduction in cardiac output, and lower blood pressure. It also helps relieve angina by reducing the heart's workload.
Common Dosages
- Tablets: 40 mg, 80 mg, and 120 mg.
Typical Dosing
- For hypertension: The usual starting dose is 40 mg once daily, which may be adjusted based on blood pressure response, with a typical maximum dose of 240 mg per day.
- For angina: The starting dose is usually 40 mg to 80 mg once daily, with adjustments as needed.
Typical Dosing
FDA Approved Indications
- Hypertension: for the treatment of high blood pressure.
- Angina Pectoris: for the management of chest pain.
Who Shouldn't Take Nadolol?
