Pronetalol (Pronethalol) is a nonselective beta-adrenoceptor antagonist that is structurally related to propranolol. Pronethalol displays a ∼125–150-fold lower affinity (140–830 nM) for beta-adrenoceptors than propranolol (1.1–5.7 nM). Pronethalol was the first beta-adrenoceptor antagonist used for the treatment of coronary heart disease and cardiac arrhythmias. Pronethalol is a cationic-amphiphilic agent that exhibits membrane-stabilizing effects that are unrelated to beta-adrenoceptor blockade. Pronetalol itself never came into widespread clinical use; it was found to produce thymic tumors in mice, and was discarded in favor of a similar, safer compound, ICI 45,520.

Sample Use Guides

Guinea-pigs: In one series of experiments, 5 mg/kg of pronethalol was injected, and in another 15 mg/kg. Pronethalol (5 mg/kg), increased the dose of ouabain required to produce extrasystoles, completely prevented fibrillation, and significantly raised the lethal dose of ouabain. When fibrillation had already been produced by ouabain, pronethalol (3 to 4 mg) administered slowly restored a regular rhythm, but rapid injection sometimes produced cardiac arrest. As much as 20 to 25 mg/kg of pronethalol could be given to animals deeply anaesthetized with urethane or pentobarbitone, but with light chloroform or ether anaesthesia, 5 mg/kg of pronethalol caused a large fall in blood pressure and complete heart-block.
Route of Administration: Intravenous
In Vitro Use Guide
Pronethalol (6.8 x 10(-5)M) reversed the alpha-receptor blockade by dibenamine, ergotamine and phentolamine of responses to adrenaline, noradrenaline and phenylephrine in guinea-pig seminal vesicle.
