Abstract
Three beta-blockers--carvedilol, metoprolol succinate, and bisoprolol--reduce mortality equally (by about 30% over one year) in patients with Class III or IV systolic heart failure. Insufficient evidence exists comparing equipotent doses of these medications head-to-head to recommend any one over the others.Entities:
