Methoxamine Hydrochloride(CAT: R045405) is a potent alpha-adrenergic agonist primarily used to increase blood pressure in cases of acute hypotension, such as during surgical procedures or shock. By stimulating alpha-1 adrenergic receptors, Methoxamine causes vasoconstriction, which leads to an increase in peripheral vascular resistance and, consequently, blood pressure. It has no significant effects on beta-adrenergic receptors, minimizing cardiac stimulation. Methoxamine Hydrochloride is often utilized in emergency settings to maintain adequate blood pressure and ensure proper perfusion to vital organs. It is important in cardiovascular and critical care management.
