(-)-α-Methyldopa hydrochloride

Description:
(-)-α-Methyldopa hydrochloride is a pharmaceutical compound primarily used as an antihypertensive agent. It is a centrally acting alpha-2 adrenergic agonist, which means it works by stimulating alpha-2 receptors in the central nervous system, leading to a decrease in sympathetic outflow and a subsequent reduction in blood pressure. The substance is a white to off-white crystalline powder that is soluble in water and has a specific optical rotation, indicating its chiral nature. Its chemical formula is C10H13N3O4·HCl, and it features a carboxylic acid group, an amine group, and a hydroxyl group, contributing to its pharmacological activity. (-)-α-Methyldopa is often used in the treatment of hypertension, particularly in pregnant women, due to its safety profile. Side effects may include sedation, dry mouth, and potential liver function alterations. As with any medication, it is essential to use it under medical supervision to monitor for efficacy and adverse reactions.
