[Bufuralol: do beta blockers reduce blood circulation in the kidneys?].

B Truniger, G Bischoff, T Schmidli

    Schweizerische Medizinische Wochenschrift
    |September 17, 1983
    PubMed
    Summary

    Bufuralol, a new beta-blocker, did not significantly reduce kidney function in hypertensive patients. This suggests it may be a safer option for renal hemodynamics compared to propranolol.

    Area of Science:

    • Pharmacology
    • Nephrology
    • Cardiovascular Medicine

    Context:

    • Essential hypertension management
    • Beta-blocker therapy
    • Renal function monitoring in hypertensive patients

    Purpose:

    • To evaluate the effects of bufuralol on arterial blood pressure, creatinine clearance, and renal plasma flow.
    • To compare the renal hemodynamic profile of bufuralol with that of propranolol.

    Summary:

    • Bufuralol, a beta-blocker with sympathomimetic activity, was studied in 8 ambulatory patients with stable essential hypertension (WHO grade I and II).
    • Over a 3-5 week period, no significant reduction in creatinine clearance or renal blood flow was observed.
    • The drug showed a small, non-statistically significant reduction in calculated renal vascular resistance, indicating less interference with renal hemodynamics than propranolol.

    Impact:

    • Bufuralol may offer a favorable alternative to propranolol for hypertensive patients, particularly those with concerns about renal function.
    • Findings suggest bufuralol's peripheral vasodilatory effects do not compromise renal excretory function.
    • This study contributes to understanding the renal safety profile of novel beta-blockers.
