title: [Hemorheologic effects of calcium antagonists in comparison with beta receptor blockers].
abstract: Normalizing rheological deficits may enhance perfusion. Both betablockers and calcium antagonists induce such effects in various populations due to differing mechanisms. In the case of calcium antagonists, this could synergistically contribute to a reduction of the peripheral resistance, predominantly caused by vascular changes. This hypothesis requires experimental testing.
