Administer intravenously. Titrate using ventricular rate or blood pressure at ≥4 minute intervals. Supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) or noncompensatory sinus tachycardia- Optional loading dose: 500 mcg per kg infused over one minute Then 50 mcg per kg per minute for the next 4 minutes Adjust dose as needed to a maximum of 200 mcg per kg per minute Additional loading doses may be administered Perioperative tachycardia and hypertension- Loading dose: 500 mcg per kg over 1 minute for gradual control (1 mg per kg over 30 seconds for immediate control).

Risk of hypotension, bradycardia, and cardiac failure: Reduce or discontinue use Risk of exacerbating reactive airway disease Diabetes mellitus: Increases the effect of hypoglycemic agents and masks hypoglycemic tachycardia Risk of unopposed alpha-agonism and severe hypertension in untreated pheochromocytoma Risk of myocardial ischemia when abruptly discontinued in patients with coronary artery disease

Interaction

Digitalis glycosides: Risk of bradycardia Anticholinesterases: Prolongs neuromuscular blockade Antihypertensive agents: Risk of rebound hypertension Sympathomimetic drugs: Dose adjustment needed Vasoconstrictive and positive inotropic effect substances: Avoid concomitant use

Pregnancy & Breastfeeding use

Pregnancy Category C. Esmolol hydrochloride has been shown to produce increased fetal resorptions with minimal maternal toxicity in rabbits when given in doses approximately 8 times the maximum human maintenance dose (300 mcg/kg/min). There are no adequate and well-controlled studies in pregnant women. Adrebloc 100 mg/10 ml IV Injection should be used during pregnancy only if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus. It is not known whether this drug is excreted in human milk. Because many drugs are excreted in human milk and because of the potential for serious adverse reactions in nursing infants from Adrebloc 100 mg/10 ml IV Injection, a decision should be made whether to discontinue nursing or to discontinue the drug, taking into account the importance of the drug to the mother.

Contraindication

Severe sinus bradycardia Heart block greater than first degree Sick sinus syndrome Decompensated heart failure Cardiogenic shock Coadministration of IV cardiodepressant calcium-channel antagonists (e.g. verapamil) in close proximity to Esmolol hydrochloride Pulmonary hypertension Known hypersensitivity to esmolol
