How it works

Carvedilol does its job by latching onto specific receptors in the heart. This prevents the heart from reacting to signals from the sympathetic nervous system, leading to a slower heart rate and less forceful contractions. This is good news for heart failure patients where the sympathetic nervous system is overactive. Carvedilol also widens blood vessels, reducing the resistance in them, which helps lower blood pressure without causing the heart to beat too quickly in response.
