Endogenous catcholamine with combined α-and β-agonist activity. Principal sympathomimetic hormone produced by the adrenal medulla. Bronchodilator; cardiostimulant; mydriatic; antiglaucoma. L-Adrenaline is a hormone that belongs to the group of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. It is used in combination therapy for the treatment of asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and other respiratory diseases. L-Adrenaline has also been shown to increase blood pressure and heart rate. L-Adrenaline may interact with other medication such as cardiac glycosides and calcium channel blockers. L-Adrenaline is a potent vasoconstrictor that can cause primary pulmonary hypertension, which can lead to heart failure. The epinephrine binds to receptors on cells in the lungs, increasing bronchial secretions, which reduces the symptoms of anaphylaxis.
