Beschreibung

Felypressin is a drug that contains epinephrine and prilocaine. It is used to lower the intraocular pressure in patients with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension. The drug causes vasoconstriction by stimulating alpha-adrenergic receptors, which increases blood pressure and lowers diastolic and systolic pressure. Felypressin also stimulates beta-adrenergic receptors, which increase heart rate and cardiac output. The drug can cause anaphylactic reactions due to its high concentration of epinephrine. Felypressin has been shown to increase the rate of wound healing in mice using laser ablation as a model system for tissue injury. This increased rate of healing may be due to the effects of this drug on epidermal growth factor production, which promotes new cell growth and tissue repair.
