The concentration-effect relationship of l-propranolol and dl-metoprolol were investigated in spontaneous hypertensive rats using reduction in exercise-induced tachycardia as a pharmacodynamic endpoint. The influence of protein binding on the effect relationship was also assessed. The rats were assigned to treatment
