Epinephrine is a non-selective alpha and beta adrenergic agonist indicated to increase mean arterial blood pressure in adult patients with hypotension associated with septic shock. ( 1.1 ) 1.1 Hypotension associated with Septic Shock Epinephrine Injection USP, 1 mg/10 mL (0.1 mg/mL) is indicated to increase mean arterial blood pressure in adult patients with hypotension associated with septic shock.

None. None.

• Monitor blood pressure frequently. (5.1) • Increases cardiac output and causes peripheral vasoconstriction. (5.2) • May induce cardiac arrhythmias and myocardial ischemia. (5.3) • Avoid extravasation into tissues, which can cause local necrosis. (5.4) • Constricts renal blood vessels which may result in oliguria or renal impairment. (5.5) • Sulfite Warning. (5.6) 5.1 Hypertension Because individual response to epinephrine may vary significantly, monitor blood pressure frequently and titrate to avoid excessive increases in blood pressure. Patients receiving monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOI) or antidepressants of triptyline or imipramine types may experience severe, prolonged hypertension when given epinephrine. 5.2 Pulmonary Edema Epinephrine increases cardiac output and causes peripheral vasoconstriction, which may result in pulmonary edema. 5.3 Cardiac Arrhythmias and Ischemia Epinephrine may induce cardiac arrhythmias and myocardial ischemia in patients, especially patients suffering from coronary artery disease or cardiomyopathy [see Adverse Reactions (6) and Drug Interactions (7.3)] . 5.4 Extravasation and Tissue Necrosis with Intravenous Infusion Avoid extravasation of epinephrine into the tissues, to prevent local necrosis. When Epinephrine Injection is administered intravenously, check the infusion site frequently for free flow. Blanching along the course of the infused vein, sometimes without obvious extravasation, may be attributed to vasa vasorum constriction …

8.1 Pregnancy Risk Summary Limited published data on epinephrine use in pregnant women are not sufficient to determine a drug-associated risk for major birth defects or miscarriage. However, there are risks to the mother and fetus associated with epinephrine use during labor or delivery, and risks due to untreated hypotension associated with septic shock (see Clinical Considerations) . In animal reproduction studies, epinephrine demostrated adverse developmental effects when administed to pregnant rabbits (gastroschisis), mice (teratogenie effects, embryonic lethality, and delayed skeletal ossification), and hamsters (embryonic lethality and delayed skeletal ossification) during …
