As lipid solubility increases, the liver As lipid solubility increases, the liver metabolizes more of the drug and more metabolizes more of the drug and more enters the brain, and therefore duration of enters the brain, and therefore duration of action is shorteraction is shorter Very lipid soluble: propranolol, metoprolol, timololVery lipid soluble: propranolol, metoprolol, timolol
As lipid solubility decreases the drug is As lipid solubility decreases the drug is renally eliminated and less drug enters the renally eliminated and less drug enters the brain and therefore duration of action is brain and therefore duration of action is longerlonger Least-lipid soluble: atenolol, betaxolol, nadololLeast-lipid soluble: atenolol, betaxolol, nadolol
