Isoproterenol is a synthetic catecholamine and beta-adrenergic agonist used primarily in the treatment of bronchial asthma and certain types of heart block. It stimulates beta-1 and beta-2 adrenergic receptors, leading to increased heart rate, bronchodilation, and relaxation of vascular smooth muscle. Isoproterenol is valuable in emergency medicine for managing severe bradycardia and cardiac arrest. Its pharmacological effects also make it a useful tool in research for studying adrenergic signaling pathways. However, careful monitoring is essential due to potential side effects, including tachycardia and palpitations.
