Terapinės indikacijos:

For blood pressure control in certain acute hypotensive states (e.g., pheochromocytomectomy, sympathectomy, poliomyelitis, spinal anesthesia, myocardial infarction, septicemia, blood transfusion, and drug reactions). As an adjunct in the treatment of cardiac arrest and profound hypotension. LEVOPHED should not be given to patients who are hypotensive from blood volume deficits except as an emergency measure to maintain coronary and cerebral artery perfusion until blood volume replacement therapy can be completed. If LEVOPHED is continuously administered to maintain blood pressure in the absence of blood volume replacement, the following may occur: severe peripheral and visceral vasoconstriction, decreased renal perfusion and urine output, poor systemic blood flow despite "normal" blood pressure, tissue hypoxia, and lactate acidosis. LEVOPHED should also not be given to patients with mesenteric or peripheral vascular thrombosis (because of the risk of increasing ischemia and extending the area of infarction) u

DESCRIPTION
Norepinephrine (sometimes referred to as _l-arterenol/Levarterenol_
or_ l-norepinephrine_) is a
sympathomimetic amine which differs from epinephrine by the absence of
a methyl group on the
nitrogen atom.
Norepinephrine Bitartrate is (-)-α-(aminomethyl)-3,4-dihydroxybenzyl
alcohol tartrate (1:1) (salt)
monohydrate and has the following structural formula:
LEVOPHED is supplied in sterile aqueous solution in the form of the
bitartrate salt to be administered
by intravenous infusion following dilution. Norepinephrine is
sparingly soluble in water, very slightly
soluble in alcohol and ether, and readily soluble in acids. Each mL
contains the equivalent of 1 mg base
of norepinephrine, sodium chloride for isotonicity, and not more than
0.2 mg of sodium metabisulfite as
an antioxidant. It has a pH of 3 to 4.5. The air in the vials has been
displaced by nitrogen gas.
CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
LEVOPHED functions as a peripheral vasoconstrictor (alpha-adrenergic
action) and as an inotropic
stimulator of the heart and dilator of coronary arteries
(beta-adrenergic action).
INDICATIONS AND USAGE
For blood pressure control in certain acute hypotensive states (e.g.,
pheochromocytomectomy,
sympathectomy, poliomyelitis, spinal anesthesia, myocardial
infarction, septicemia, blood transfusion,
and drug reactions).
As an adjunct in the treatment of cardiac arrest and profound
hypotension.
CONTRAINDICATIONS
LEVOPHED should not be given to patients who are hypotensive from
blood volume deficits except as
an emergency measure to maintain coronary and cerebral artery
perfusion until blood volume
replacement therapy can be completed. If LEVOPHED is continuously
administered to maintain blood
pressure in the absence of blood volume replacement, the following may
occur: severe peripheral and
visceral vasoconstriction, decreased renal perfusion and urine output,
poor systemic bloo
