Bufuralol is a non-cardioselective beta-adrenergic blocker with high intrinsic sympathomimetic activity. It has affinity for both β1 and β2-adrenergic receptors. It acts as a potent β-adrenoceptor antagonist with partial agonist activity. Bufuralol is primarily metabolized by cytochrome P450 (CYP) isoform CYP2D6, with CYP1A2 and CYP2C19. Activity of bufuralol has been shown to yield antianginal and antihypertensive effects. It appears to have a higher incidence of adverse eflects than with other beta blockers. Bufuralol has been in phase III clinical trials for the treatment of hypertension. However, this research has been discontinued.
