Carvedilol leads to plaque stabilization, inhibits cardiac remodeling and apoptosis as well as produces cardioprotective, neuroprotective and antiarrhythmic effects. Pleiotropic action of carvedilol leads to its exceptional effectiveness in the therapy of circulatory system.-adrenoreceptor. Accumulated experimental data indicate its pleiotropic actions. The drug is able to stimulate . Carvedilol, the third generation of
