Metaraminol

Description

Metaraminol - -Metaraminol is a sympathomimetic compound with activity that acts primarily at alpha-1 adrenergic receptors. Metaraminol is used to inhibit hypotension due to vasodilation, particularly in critically ill patients who do not respond well to volume resuscitation. Metaraminol may also be used as an adjunct to help improve cardiac contractility. The use of metaraminol may be supported by less evidence, but its effectiveness in specific situations remains of interest.
