positive inotropic and chronotropic , not via activation of beta1 , but through glucagon receptors that are G - protein linked to adenylyl cyclase . so it is used in beta blocker overdose.

YES for b block overdose is GLUCAGON . PHENILEFRINE is alpha agonist , so it increase the blood pressure not the heart rate

the heart is beta an ONLY BETA, , phenylephrine could cause a reflex brady cardia but glucagon is correct.
