The efficacy of once daily bisoprolol (10 mg) and atenolol (100 mg) was assessed in 20 patients with stable angina using a placebo controlled double-blind randomized crossover protocol. Efficacy was assessed by computer assisted treadmill exercise testing with monitoring of leads CMS and CC5, carried out 22–24 h after the last dose. The mean±SEM exercise time on placebo was 6.5±0.4 min increasing to 7.8±0.5 min on bisoprolol (P
