Product Description
Mechanism of Action
Dopamine hydrochloride is an endogenous catecholamine used as a pharmacologic agonist at dopaminergic, adrenergic and adrenergic receptors in a dosedependent manner. Low doses stimulate D receptors and renal vasodilation; intermediate doses enhance contractility via activity; high doses induce vasoconstriction through activation.
Benefits and Advantages
Used in receptorselectivity modelling, cardiovascular pharmacology, renalhemodynamics studies, catecholamine signalling assays and doseresponse gradient research.
Side Effects and Risks
Risks include tachyarrhythmias, hypertension, ischemia, extravasation injury, metabolic acidosis and tissue necrosis. Handle with potent catecholamine precautions.
Only GMP materials will be supplied, logistics all according to GDP.
