Propranolol is a non-selectiveβ-blocker commonly used in the treatment of arrhythmia, angina and hypertension, etc. Propranolol used in the treatment of hemangiomas was an accidental discovery, which creates a trend of research on the classic old drug at home and abroad. The efficacy of propranolol in the treatment of infantile hemangiomas has been affirmed in the clinical observation;howev-er, the safety and safe dosage need to be further evaluated by large sample control studies.
