that is a vasoconstrictor. Adrenaline constricts the blood vessels causing increased blood pressure. High blood levels overwork the heart leading to an increased size of heart muscles in turn failing the heart. Beta-blockers lower the heart rate which decreases heart 's oxygen demand. Beta blockers also decrease rennin production reducing oxygen demand of the heart. They are used in the long-term management of chronic failure of the heart.
