To compare the efficacy and safety of selective versus non-selective beta blockers in managing hypertension.
Conducted a randomized trial on participants with hypertension.
Administered both selective and non-selective beta blockers as interventions.
Measured blood pressure response and adverse effects over a defined follow-up period.
Selective beta blockers reduced systolic blood pressure by 10 mmHg (p<0.05).
Non-selective beta blockers decreased diastolic blood pressure by 8 mmHg (p<0.05).
Reported adverse effects were higher in the non-selective group, suggesting a need for careful patient selection.

Implication

May support selective beta blockers for better tolerability in hypertension; hypothesis-generating and requires prospective confirmation before practice change.
