A beta-blocking agent, also known as a beta-blocker, is a type of medication that is primarily used to manage abnormal heart rhythms, and to protect the heart from a second heart attack after a first one has occurred. Beta-blockers work by blocking the effects of the hormone adrenaline, also known as epinephrine. They do this by preventing adrenaline from binding to beta receptors on the nerves. By blocking the effects of adrenaline, they reduce the heart rate, reduce blood pressure by dilating blood vessels, and reduce the force of the hearts contractions, thus reducing the demand for oxygen and helping the heart to function more efficiently.

Nerve agents are chemical-warfare agents that act directly at nerve synapses, typically increasing the activity of acetylcholine.
Other chemical agents were used in combat before World War II and are sometimes called first-generation chemical agents. Second- and 3rd-generation chemical agents include 2 types of nerve agents:

G-series agents (2nd-generation)
V-series agents (3rd-generation)

G-series agents, or G agents, include GA (tabun), GB (sarin), GD (soman), and GF (cyclosarin), which were developed by Nazi Germany before and during World War II. V-series agents include VX; these compounds were synthesized after World War II.
All nerve agents are organophosphorus esters, as are organophosphate pesticides. However, nerve agents are far more potent; the LD50 (the amount required to cause death in half of people receiving that dose) of VX is approximately 3 mg.
At room temperature, G agents are watery liquids with high volatilities and pose both skin-contact and inhalational hazards. VX is a liquid with the consistency of motor oil and that evaporates relatively slowly. None of these agents has a pronounced odor or causes local skin irritation.
Fourth-generation agents are nerve agents created after the development of VX. Much information about them remains classified. They include the A-series agents, or Novichok compounds, which are low-volatility nerve agents even more persistent than VX. One of the A agents was used in a 2018 assassination attempt in the United Kingdom.

Vitiation refers to the action of spoiling, impairing, corrupting or making something ineffective, typically in the context of legal contracts or agreements. A contract, for instance, can be vitiated if there was a mistake, misrepresentation or fraud involved in its formation, rendering it invalid or unenforceable. In broader terms, vitiation can also refer to the process of corruption or degradation.
