Product Description
Mechanism of action
Adrenaline tartrate is a tartrate salt of epinephrine, offering improved stability and solubility for pharmaceutical formulations. Its pharmacological actions are identical to those of adrenaline, acting as a potent agonist at alpha‑ and beta‑adrenergic receptors with wide‑ranging cardiovascular and respiratory effects.
Benefits and advantages
The tartrate salt form facilitates sterile injectable preparations with controlled pH and stability profiles. It is used in emergency medicines, local anaesthetic mixtures and ophthalmic or nasal preparations where rapid adrenergic action is required.
Side effects and risks
Adverse effects mirror those of adrenaline base, including tachycardia, arrhythmias, hypertension, tremor and anxiety. Careful dosing and monitoring are imperative in clinical use. During manufacturing, protection from light and oxygen is required to minimise degradation, and appropriate safety precautions should be observed.
Professional use only. Supplied exclusively to licensed manufacturers and institutions.
