Vasoxine

Vasoxine Uses, Dosage, Side Effects, Food Interaction and all others data.

An alpha-adrenergic agonist that causes prolonged peripheral vasoconstriction. It has little if any direct effect on the central nervous system.

Vasoxine is a potent sympathomimetic amine that increases both systolic and diastolic blood pressure. Vasoxine is indicated for prevention and treatment of the acute hypotensive state occurring with spinal anesthesia. It is also indicated as adjunctive treatment of hypotension due to hemorrhage, reactions to medications, surgical complications, and shock associated with brain damage due to trauma or tumor. Vasoxine acts on both α1-adrenergic receptors but appears to have no effect on β-adrenergic receptors. It acts by increasing the force of the heart's pumping action as well as constricting peripheral blood vessels.

Uses

Vasoxine is an alpha adrenergic agonist used to treat hypotension.

Indicated for the treatment and management of hypotension.

How Vasoxine works

Vasoxine acts through peripheral vasoconstriction by acting as a pure alpha-1 adrenergic receptor agonist, consequently increasing systemic blood pressure (both systolic and diastolic).
