Epinephrine -Adrenaline tablet for allergic reaction &low BP

 Epinephrine /Adrenaline

Epinephrine /Adrenaline - belongs to a group of medicines used for the treatment of serious shock produced by a severe allergic reaction or collapse. It may also be used to restart your heart if it has stopped.

Sometimes use low BP

Epinephrine injection is used along with emergency medical treatment to treat life-threatening allergic reactions caused by insect bites or stings, foods, medications, latex, and other causes. Epinephrine is in a class of medications called alpha- and beta-adrenergic agonists -its sympathomimetic agents.

 What is the mechanism of action for epinephrine? Mechanism of Action

Through its action on alpha-1 receptors, epinephrine induces increased vascular smooth muscle contraction, pupillary dilator muscle contraction, and intestinal sphincter muscle contraction

What group of drug is adrenaline?

 It works by relaxing the muscles in the airways and tightening the blood vessels. Epinephrine is in a class of medications called alpha- and beta-adrenergic agonists -sympathomimetic agents.

Is epinephrine a sympathomimetic drug?

Sympathomimetic drugs are agents which in general mimic responses due to stimulation of sympathetic nerves. These agents are able to directly activate adrenergic receptors or to indirectly activate them by increasing norepinephrine and epinephrine-(mediators of the sympathoadrenal system) levels.

Adrenalin? medicine

Adrenalin is used to treat severe allergic reactions (anaphylaxis) to insect stings or bites, foods, drugs, and other allergens. Epinephrine auto-injectors may be kept on hand for self-injection by a person with a history of severe allergic reactions. Epinephrine is also used to treat exercise-induced anaphylaxis

 or to treat low blood pressure that is caused by septic shock. Adrenalin may also be used for purposes not listed in this medication guide

 

Before taking this medicine-Before using epinephrine -->

tell your doctor if any past use of Adrenalin caused an allergic reaction to get worse.

heart disease or high blood pressure;

asthma;Parkinson's disease;

depression or mental illness;

a thyroid disorder; or

diabetes.

 

 

 

What are adrenergic functions?

 

Adrenergic drugs stimulate the nerves in your body's sympathetic nervous system (SNS). This system helps regulate your body's reaction to stress or emergency- These drugs can also bind with the receptors to stimulate the release of epinephrine and norepinephrine.

 

What do the adrenergic receptors do?

 

Adrenergic receptors are cell surface glycoproteins that recognize and selectively bind the catecholamines, norepinephrine and epinephrine, which are released from sympathetic nerve endings and the adrenal medulla.

 

Adrenergic receptors are cell surface glycoproteins that recognize and selectively bind the catecholamines, norepinephrine, and epinephrine, which are released from sympathetic nerve endings and the adrenal medulla. By transducing the external catecholamine stimulus into an intracellular signal, these receptors mediate the actions of the sympathetic nervous system, including a variety of responses such as arteriolar smooth muscle contraction and cardiac contraction, while are critically involved in cardiac function and blood pressure homeostasis. Activation or blockade of these receptors is, thus, a major therapeutic approach for the management of a number of cardiovascular disorders, including hypertension, angina pectoris, and cardiac arrhythmias. Additionally, alterations in these receptors or in their coupled intracellular effectors may contribute to or underlie the pathogenesis of cardiovascular diseases such as cardiac hypertrophy, congestive heart failure, and hypertension. Over the past few years, major insights have been gained into the physiology and pharmacology of these receptors, particularly in relation to the molecular mechanisms involved in their ability to mediate "transmembrane signaling." These insights, which will be reviewed here, have resulted from the isolation and characterization of adrenergic receptors, from the determination of their deduced primary and secondary structures, and from structure-function studies using classical biochemistry and pharmacology as well as recombinant DNA
