Ephedrine (l-form) is an alkaloid, which was initially purified from Ephedra plant. The extract form Ephedra has been used in China for medicinal purposes for several thousand years. Ephedrine acts as an agonist at alpha- and beta-adrenergic receptors and indirectly causes the release of norepinephrine from sympathetic neurons. The drug crosses the blood brain barrier and stimulates the central nervous system. Ephedrine products are now banned in many countries, as they are a major source for the production of the addictive compound methamphetamine. FDA has approved ephedrine only for the treatment of clinically important hypotension occurring in the setting of anesthesia.

Levisoprenaline (l-isoproterenol) is beta1- and beta2-adrenoreceptor agonist. In Japan, continuous inhalation of levisoprenaline is a recommended treatment for pediatric patients with acute severe exacerbation. Compared with salbutamol, l-isoproterenol reduced modified pulmonary index score more rapidly. But in most countries do not recommend continuous inhalation of l-isoproterenol to treat pediatric patients with acute severe exacerbation of asthma due to worsening asthma control. Levisoprenaline was used to cause experimental chronic heart failure in rats.

ICI-118551 is a selective β2 adrenergic receptor antagonist, that was originally developed for the regulation of blood pressure. ICI-118551 crosses the blood-brain barrier and it was in phase I clinical trials for the treatment of chronic anxiety. Currently, ICI-118,551 has no known therapeutic use in humans although it has been used widely in research to understand the action of the β2 adrenergic receptor, as few other specific antagonists for this receptor are known.
