➤ What types of beta blockers are best for stable angina?
Cardioselective β1‑blockers such as metoprolol or atenolol are preferred for stable angina because they mainly reduce heart rate and contractility with less bronchial β2 blockade. Long‑acting formulations provide steady control. Agents with intrinsic sympathomimetic activity (ISA) generally give less antianginal benefit and are not first choice.
