It was discovered and developed by Warner-Lambert but in January 1989 the company announced that it had withdrawn the New Drug Application; the company's chairman said: "Who needs the 30th beta blocker?" it wasn't marketed in the US, UK, or Europe and the authors of a Cochrane review could find no product monograph for it.
