What does Nadolol mean?

Nadolol is a non-selective beta-adrenergic receptor blocker (beta-blocker). Unlike most beta-blockers, it blocks both beta-1 (cardiac) and beta-2 (pulmonary, vascular) receptors without selectivity. It is used to treat hypertension, chronic angina, and as prophylaxis for migraines. Its once-daily dosing is an advantage over shorter-acting beta-blockers.
