Nadolol is an unselective beta blocker with a half-life of around 20 hours. It is used to treat high blood pressure , angina pectoris and migraines .
Stereoisomerism
The substance contains three stereocenters, so theoretically there could be eight stereoisomers. However, since the two hydroxyl groups on the fused cyclohexane ring of nadolol are always arranged in the cis position to one another, the drug consists of only two pairs of enantiomers, which are present as racemates. Nadolol is a mixture of four stereoisomers.
