Descripción

Phenylephrine is a sympathomimetic drug that stimulates α-adrenergic receptors. It is used to relieve the symptoms of chronic cough and to reduce blood pressure in patients with high blood pressure. Phenylephrine has been shown to inhibit the activity of toll-like receptor 4 on human cells, leading to a reduction in proinflammatory cytokines. In addition, phenylephrine has been shown to inhibit the activity of TLR2 on human cells, which leads to an increase in intracellular calcium levels. The effects of phenylephrine are mediated by activation of non-selective cation channels and inhibition of phosphodiesterases. This drug is also used as a mydriatic and cycloplegic agent for eye disorders such as glaucoma or ocular hypertension.
