Product Description
Mechanism of Action
Etilefrine is a sympathomimetic agent with mixed α‑ and β‑adrenergic agonist properties. It increases peripheral vascular tone, enhances venous return and boosts cardiac output, improving orthostatic blood‑pressure control. It acts predominantly by β₁‑mediated inotropy and mild vasoconstriction.
Benefits and Advantages
Used in adrenergic‑receptor modelling, autonomic‑dysfunction studies, orthostatic‑hypotension research, and cardiovascular‑stimulation assays.
Side Effects and Risks
Risks include tachycardia, hypertension, arrhythmias, tremor and anxiety. Handle with sympathomimetic‑agonist precautions.
