In vivo evaluation of antimyotonic efficacy of β-adrenergic drugs in a rat model of myotonia
The sodium channel blocker mexiletine is considered the first-line drug in myotonic syndromes, a group of muscle disorders characterized by membrane over-excitability. We previously showed that the β-adrenoceptor modulators, clenbuterol and propranolol, block voltage-gated sodium channels in a manne...
