Hi Scott,
>It's great that so many different beta-blockers are available.
14 oral beta blockers are marketed in the UK.
>My grandmother can't take losartan because it causes her to become hyperkalemic.
All ARBs can cause hyperkaemia. The hyperkalemia may be reduced by potassium-wasting diuretics such as furosemide (Lasix).
>So that this thread doesn't go too far off track, I guess the psychiatric question I have for you is whether or not you have personally seen pindolol used successfully as an augmentor of antidepressants?
No, I don't know anyone who's tried it.
