    What does isoproterenol do to blood pressure? ›

    Isoproterenol, a beta agonist, would cause a decrease in blood pressure by vasodilation; therefore, choices A, B, and C can be immediately eliminated. The decrease in heart rate is due to a baroreceptor reflex. The increased blood pressure leads to increased parasympathetic and decreased sympathetic tone to the heart.

    How does isuprel increase heart rate? ›

    Isoprenaline increases heart rate by stimulation of β1-adrenorceptors and lowers blood pressure through vasodilatatory β2-adrenoreceptors, if the latter response is unopposed by sympathetic reflexes, blood pressure falls to a greater extent.

    How does isoproterenol increase heart rate? ›

    These results suggest that the hypotensive actions of a 10 microg/kg dose of isoproterenol are mediated by activation of beta(1,2)-adrenoceptors whereas the increases in heart rate may be due to activation of another type of beta-adrenoceptor in cardiac pacemaker cells.
