PART I: HEALTH PROFESSIONAL INFORMATION
ACTION AND CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
AJ-ADENOSINE is an endogenous nucleoside occurring in all cells of the
body. When
injected intravenously adenosine slows atrioventricular (A-V) nodal
conduction, can
interrupt the reentry pathways through the A-V node and can restore
normal sinus rhythm
in
patients
with
paroxysmal
supraventricular
tachycardia
(PSVT),
including
PSVT
associated with Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome.
Adenosine
is
antagonized
competitively
by
methylxanthines
such
as
caffeine
and
theophylline and potentiated by blockers of nucleoside transport such
as dipyridamole.
Adenosine is not blocked by atropine.
In controlled clinical trials, cumulative 60% and 92% of patients
converted to normal
sinus rhythm within one minute after 6 mg and 12 mg bolus doses of
adenosine injection,
respectively. In other controlled clinical trials with bolus doses of
3, 6, 9 and 12 mg some
patients with paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia converted to
normal sinus rhythm
on 3 mg of adenosine injection. Reports in the medical literature
indicate success in
treating PSVT in pediatric patients (including newborns) with
adenosine injection in
doses equivalent by weight to those used in adults.
AJ-ADENOSINE is not effective in converting rhythms other than PSVT,
such as atrial
flutter, atrial fibrillation, or ventricular tachycardia to normal
sinus rhythm.
Hemodynamics

Adenosine is a potent vasodilator in most vascular beds, except in
renal afferent arterioles
and hepatic veins where it produces vasoconstriction. The intravenous
bolus dose of 6 or
12 mg AJ-AD
