Abstract
Beta-andrenoceptor agents have been used in the treatment of postural hypotension and agonist activity found to be important. The effects of xamoterol and pindolol on standing haemodynamics were compared in this study. Xamoterol was found to be of significant benefit, but pindolol was ineffective. Xamoterol may therefore be useful in the treatment of postural hypotension.
