“An Absolute Solution in Emergency Hour”
Nephsav (Norepinephrine Bitartrate), also known as noradrenaline, is a medication used to treat people with very low blood pressure. It is a vasoconstrictor, similar to adrenaline, used to treat lifethreatening low blood pressure (hypotension) that can occur with certain medical conditions or surgical procedures. In emergencies it is used for emergency restoration of blood pressure in cases of acute hypotension and is often used during or after CPR (cardio-pulmonary resuscitation) and as an adjunct treatment during cardiac arrest. It is also preferred in sepsis if low blood pressure does not improve following intravenous fluids. It is the same molecule as the hormone and neurotransmitter norepinephrine. It is given by slow injection into a vein
Indications:
Norepinephrine is indicated for the emergency restoration of blood pressure in cases of acute hypotension such as in management of septic shock, cardiogenic shock, hypovolemic shock, PostCardiac Arrest Care, Spinal Anesthesia-Induced Hypotension, and Peripheral Vasoconstriction.
Dosage:
After an initial dosage of 8 to 12 mcg per minute via intravenous infusion, assess patient response and
adjust dosage to maintain desired hemodynamic effect. Monitor blood pressure every two minutes until
the desired hemodynamic effect is achieved, and then monitor blood pressure every five minutes for the
duration of the infusion. Typical maintenance intravenous dosage is 2 to 4 mcg per minute.
