CAS 54-49-9
:Metaraminol
Description:
Metaraminol, with the CAS number 54-49-9, is a synthetic organic compound primarily used as a vasopressor agent in medical settings. It is characterized by its ability to increase blood pressure by stimulating alpha-adrenergic receptors, leading to vasoconstriction. Metaraminol is typically administered in clinical situations such as hypotension or during anesthesia to maintain adequate blood flow. The compound is a colorless to pale yellow liquid and is soluble in water, which facilitates its intravenous administration. Its chemical structure includes a phenolic group, contributing to its pharmacological activity. Metaraminol's effects can be dose-dependent, and it may have side effects such as hypertension, reflex bradycardia, and potential tissue necrosis if extravasation occurs. As with many medications, careful monitoring is essential during its use to ensure patient safety and efficacy. Overall, metaraminol is a vital tool in emergency medicine and critical care for managing blood pressure in patients.
