DESCRIPTION
Phenylephrine Hydrochloride Injection USP is a vasoconstrictor and
pressor drug chemically
related to epinephrine and ephedrine.
PHARMACOLOGY
When applied topically or infiltrated into the tissues, phenylephrine
produces vasoconstriction
that lasts longer than that of epinephrine and ephedrine. Its action
on the heart contrast sharply
with that of epinephrine and ephedrine, in that it slows the heart
rate and increases the stroke
output, inducing no disturbance in the rhythm of the pulse.
In therapeutic doses, it produces little if any stimulation of either
the spinal cord or cerebrum. A
singular advantage of this drug is the fact that repeated injections
produce comparable effects.
INDICATIONS
For the maintenance of blood pressure during spinal and inhalation
anesthesia, and also for
overcoming peripheral vascular failure in shock and shock-like states,
drug-induced hypotension
or hypersensitivity. Employed to overcome paroxysmal supraventricular
tachycardia, to prolong
spinal anesthesia and as a vasoconstrictor in regional anesthesia.
