(+)-Methylephedrine(Cat No.:I014472)is an enantiomer of methylephedrine, a sympathomimetic compound structurally related to ephedrine. It acts as a mild stimulant by increasing the release of norepinephrine, which in turn activates adrenergic receptors, leading to effects like vasoconstriction, bronchodilation, and increased heart rate. (+)-Methylephedrine is used in some over-the-counter decongestants and bronchodilators, often for conditions like asthma, nasal congestion, or bronchitis. It may also be found in certain weight loss and energy-boosting supplements. While generally considered safe in low doses, it can have side effects such as hypertension and insomnia, especially when overused.
