Abstract

Therapy for severe beta-blocker poisoning should be based upon careful supportive therapy. In most cases of poisoning, elimination techniques cannot be expected to remove significant amounts of the drug. Inotropic drugs such as isoproterenol, prenalterol and glucagon in adequate (i.e. large) doses may be necessary to counteract cardiac failure.
