Am so glad I found this site. I would like to know the major differences between beta blockers and ace inhibitors. Dear Joyce Patients are often on both types of medications at the same time.
Beta blockers cause decreases in the heart rate and blood pressure.
They also cause the heart to work less harder. ACE inhibitors decrease the blood pressure. They also help hearts that have been damaged remodel themselves. Both classes of medicines are very useful and have been shown to help patients with heart disease. I hope this has been useful.
