Phenylephrine HCl (CAT: A001003) is an adrenergic drug that selectively activates α1-adrenergic receptors and has a contraction effect on local body blood vessels. It is mainly used for surgical operations to prolong local anesthesia time, swelling, and anti-inflammation of nasal mucosa congestion.
