Ideal sources for Wikipedia's health content are defined in the guideline Wikipedia:Identifying reliable sources (medicine) and are typically review articles. Here are links to possibly useful sources of information about Alprenolol. PubMed provides review articles from the past five years (limit to free review articles) The TRIP database provides clinical publications about evidence-based medicine. Other potential sources include: Centre for Reviews and Dissemination and CDC

According to usage in e.g. ^[1], the term "alprenolol" is used as a noun for a class of chemical compounds, viz. "Five alprenolols showed inhibition which approached that of propranolol."

Thus it seems we need to at least disambiguate the term between the proprietary brand name "Alprenolol" (this article) and the chemical class "alprenolol" (new article needed). However, I don't have the requisite chemical knowledge to write the new article.
