Practolol, a beta-adrenoreceptor antagonist, was introduced in 1970 for the treatment of angina and cardiac dysrhythmias. By 1974 long-term use had been associated with serious delayed idiosyncratic reactions (oculomucocutaneous syndrome) and this led to the withdrawal of oral preparations by the major manufacturer on a worldwide basis. There is no evidence to suggest that other beta-adrenoreceptor antagonist are associated with this risk. Intravenous preparations of practolol remain available in many countries for the emergency treatment of selected cardiac dysrhythmias.
