This Medication Carvedilol is used for treating high blood pressure and congestive heart failure It is related to labetalol Normodyne Trandate Carvedilol blocks receptors of the adrenergic nervous system the system of nerves in which epinephrine adrenalin is active Nerves from the adrenergic system enter the heart and release an adrenergic chemical norepinephrine that attaches to receptors on the hearts muscle and stimulates the muscle to beat more rapidly and forcefully By blocking the receptors carvedilol reduces the hearts rate and force of contraction and thereby reduces the work of the heart Carvedilol also blocks adrenergic receptors on arteries and causes the arteries to relax and the blood pressure to fall The drop in blood pressure further reduces the work of the heart since it is easier to pump blood against a lower pressure
