Metaproterenol

Description:

Metaproterenol, with the CAS number 586-06-1, is a synthetic medication primarily used as a bronchodilator for the treatment of asthma and other respiratory conditions. It belongs to the class of drugs known as beta-adrenergic agonists, specifically targeting beta-2 adrenergic receptors in the bronchial smooth muscle, leading to relaxation and dilation of the airways. Metaproterenol is characterized by its ability to provide rapid relief from bronchospasm, making it effective in acute asthma attacks. The compound is typically administered via inhalation, which allows for direct delivery to the lungs, minimizing systemic side effects. In terms of its chemical structure, Metaproterenol is a phenolic compound with a hydroxyl group and an isopropylamine side chain, contributing to its pharmacological activity. Common side effects may include tremors, palpitations, and increased heart rate, which are associated with its stimulant effects on the cardiovascular system. Overall, Metaproterenol is an important therapeutic agent in managing obstructive airway diseases.
