REVIEW Acebutolol is a selective β1-receptor antagonist used for the treatment of hypertension. It blocks the activation of β1-receptors by epinephrine, which would increases heart rate and blood pressure. Beta blockers also prevent the release of renin, a hormone secreted by the kidneys which leads to constriction of blood vessels.
