摘要
We attempted to characterize the role of short-term coadministration of pimobendan in beta-blocker therapy for severe congestive heart failure in 30 patients in a randomized fashion. Results suggested that short-term coadministration of pimobendan with the introduction of carvedilol therapy was safe and had favorable effects on neurohormone levels in patients with severe congestive heart failure.
