Overview
Beta-blockers should be continued indefinitely for any patient hospitalized for unstable angina or NSTEMI, unless there are contraindications. For patients with left ventricular failure who presented with unstable angina or NSTEMI, beta-blocker therapy should be gradually titrated up to the desired dose.

Beta Blockers (DO NOT EDIT)[1][2]
Class I |
"1. Beta blockers are indicated for all patients recovering from UA / NSTEMI unless contraindicated. Treatment should begin within a few days of the event, if not initiated acutely, and should be continued indefinitely. (Level of Evidence: B)" |
"2. Patients recovering from UA / NSTEMI with moderate or severe LV failure should receive beta blocker therapy with a gradual titration scheme. (Level of Evidence: B)" |
Class IIa |
"1. It is reasonable to prescribe beta blockers to low-risk patients (i.e., normal LV function, revascularized, no high risk features) recovering from UA / NSTEMI in the absence of absolute contraindications. (Level of Evidence: B)" |
