Antidepressant therapy is not always effective and is slow to take effect. In theory, these shortfalls may be caused by induction of neuronal negative feedback via pre-synaptic 5-HTIA receptors. Pindolol, an antagonist at somatodentritic pre-synaptic 5-HTIA receptors has been investigated

1. In recent years evidence has accumulated which indicates that although various beta-adrenoceptor antagonists are equally effective in lowering blood pressure in patients with essential hypertension the mechanisms of action of the different drugs are heterogeneous. 2.
