How to Order:
Epinephrine Chloride Nasal Solution is a formulation containing epinephrine (adrenaline) at a concentration of 10 mg in 10 mL, which equates to 1 mg/mL. This medication is designed specifically for nasal use.
Indications
- This solution is typically used as a local vasoconstrictor. It may be employed in medical settings to reduce nasal congestion or to control nasal bleeding (epistaxis) by constricting blood vessels in the nasal passages. It is also utilized in procedures to improve visualization by minimizing bleeding.
Mechanism of Action
Epinephrine is a sympathomimetic agent that works by stimulating alpha and beta-adrenergic receptors. When applied locally, it causes vasoconstriction, which leads to reduced blood flow and decreased swelling.
