AB  - Beta-adrenergic–blocking  agents  are  widely  used  for  the  treatment  of  hypertension,  arrhythmias,  angina  pectoris,  heart  failure,  migraine  headaches,  and  glaucoma.  Beta-blocker  poisoning  is  the  most  common  cause  of  drug-induced  cardiogenic  shock  in  the  United  States.  Many  patients  with  beta-blocker  overdose  will  have  underlying  cardiovascular  diseases  or  will  be  taking  other  cardioactive  medications,  both  of  which  may  aggravate  beta-blocker  overdose.  Of  particular  concern  are  combined  ingestions  with  calcium  blockers  or  tricyclic  antidepressants.  A  variety  of  beta  blockers  are  available,  with  various  pharmacologic  effects  and  clinical  uses  (Table  II–15).
