Norepinephrine is an important neurotransmitter and a drug used in first aid and to treat critical situations. It constricts blood vessels, raises blood pressure, and increases the contractility of the heart. This medication is usually used to manage conditions such as severe low blood pressure or cardiac arrest. In Hong Kong, norepinephrine is commonly used by medical staff during emergency procedures to help maintain patients' cardiovascular function. Patients should closely monitor blood pressure and heart rate while receiving norepinephrine therapy to ensure safety and effectiveness. When using this medication, health care professionals should follow the prescribed dosage and usage to minimize possible side effects and risks.
Instructions for use: Inject the drug into a vein and be administered by a professional medical professional. The patient's vital signs, such as heartbeat and blood pressure, should be closely monitored during use. This drug usually does not need to be taken with food, but use with MAO inhibitors should be avoided to avoid dangerous interactions.
Dosage Guidelines: The starting dose depends on the patient's condition, usually 0.1 to 0.5 micrograms per minute for adults, and can be adjusted based on response. The starting dose for children is 0.05 to 0.1 micrograms per kilogram of body weight, again adjusted as needed. Dosage adjustments should be made under the guidance of a physician and based on the patient's vital signs and symptoms. Do not increase the dosage or change the usage on your own to avoid adverse reactions.
