This product is white or white crystalline powder, odorless, bitter; Contact with the air or sunlight, easy to Oxidative deterioration. This product is very slightly soluble in water, insoluble in ethanol, chloroform, ether, fatty oil or volatile oil; Soluble in mineral acid or sodium hydroxide solution, insoluble in ammonia solution or sodium carbonate solution. Epinephrine is mainly found in adrenal medullary chromaffin cells and is the main hormone of adrenal medulla. Medicinal products are extracted from the adrenal medulla of domestic animals or synthesized artificially. It is a, B receptor agonist, the and B receptors are very strong, so the effect is more complex and extensive. Due to the excitation of the pl receptor in the heart, the myocardial contractility is enhanced, the heart rate is accelerated, and the oxygen consumption of the myocardium is increased. The stimulation of a receptor can make the skin mucous membrane blood vessels and splanchnic blood vessels contract, while the coronary artery and skeletal muscle blood vessels are relaxed due to the stimulation of p2 receptor of vascular smooth muscle. Vasoconstrictor effect on the brain and lung is weak, sometimes due to increased blood pressure and passive expansion. Due to the excitation of bronchial smooth muscle p2 receptor and produce obvious expansion effect, especially when bronchospasm (such as bronchial asthma) is more obvious. Can be excited on the bronchial mucosa vascular smooth muscle a receptor, so that mucosal vasoconstriction, eliminate asthma mucosal edema, and improve ventilation. It has a significant effect on the metabolism of the body, can promote the decomposition of glycogen in the liver and skeletal muscle, increase the concentration of free fatty acids in the blood, increase the oxygen consumption of the body, and increase the body temperature.
adrenergic receptor agonists. It is used to relieve bronchial asthma, rescue anaphylactic shock, compatibility with local anesthetics and local hemostasis, urticaria, hay fever, serum reaction and other allergic diseases, glaucoma and so on.
