Vasculex Injection contains Phenylephrine Hydrochloride, a selective alpha-1 adrenergic agonist used for the management of hypotension and as a vasopressor in clinical settings. It helps increase blood pressure by constricting blood vessels and is commonly used in anesthesia, critical care, and emergency medicine.

Composition

Each 5 ml contains:

• Phenylephrine Hydrochloride 0.5 mg

Indications

Vasculex Injection is indicated for:

• Acute hypotension (low blood pressure)
• Vasopressor support during anesthesia
• Shock states under medical supervision
• Spinal or epidural anesthesia-induced hypotension
• Adjunct in critical care settings to maintain blood pressure

Mechanism of Action

Phenylephrine is a selective alpha-1 adrenergic receptor agonist. It causes vasoconstriction of peripheral blood vessels, leading to an increase in systemic vascular resistance and blood pressure. It does not significantly stimulate beta receptors, so it has minimal direct effect on heart rate.

Dosage & Administration

• Must be administered by a qualified healthcare professional
• Given via intravenous or intramuscular route as prescribed
• Dosage is individualized based on blood pressure response and clinical condition
• Continuous monitoring of blood pressure and cardiac status is required
• For hospital use only

Precautions

• Use with caution in patients with hypertension or cardiovascular disease
• May cause reflex bradycardia due to vasoconstriction
• Monitor cardiac function during administration
• Avoid extravasation at injection site
• Not suitable for self-administration
• Use only in equipped clinical settings
