Can people who play sports professionally take betablockers? I know that these drugs slowed down the work of the heart, so how will it affect the daily physical exertion?

A person practicing sports professionally should not use beta-blockers. This drug reduces the efficiency of the body, hence it is contraindicated in professional athletes. What's more, beta-blockers are not allowed in some disciplines, because they improve concentration, so they must not be used, for example, in shooting or fencing.
