There is controversy regarding the selection of beta-blockers in the Propranolol has been around since the 1960s and have a long history of research and documented studies behind it
The cardio-selective beta-1-blockers include atenolol, betaxolol, bisoprolol, esmolol, acebutolol, metoprolol, and nebivolol

3 Bisoprolol has a long elimination half‐life (about 11 h in the healthy population and 17 h in CHF patients Propranolol is the preferred agent for β-adrenergic blockade due to its additional effect of blocking the peripheral conversion of inactive thyroxine (T4) to active form T3 via inhibition of the 5'-monodeiodinase that converts T4 to T3 compared to metoprolol
