Epinephrine

Epinephrine is a crucial medication used primarily for the emergency treatment of severe allergic reactions, known as anaphylaxis. It acts quickly to improve breathing by relaxing the muscles in the airways, stimulating the heart, and reducing swelling and hives. Epinephrine is also used to manage cardiac arrest and to increase blood pressure in certain situations. In emergency settings, it helps stabilize critical conditions rapidly, making it an essential tool in both allergy management and critical care.
