Esmolol Hydrochloride is a selective beta-1 adrenergic receptor antagonist. It functions by competitively blocking the beta-1 adrenergic receptors in the heart and vascular smooth muscle. This action results in a decrease in heart rate and contractility, leading to a reduction in cardiac output. Esmolol Hydrochloride′s mechanism of action involves inhibiting the stimulatory effects of the sympathetic nervous system on the heart, thereby reducing the force and rate of cardiac contractions.
