What does it do?

Norepinephrine tartarate hydrate is a sympathomimetic agent used to increase blood pressure by constricting blood vessels and strengthening heart contractions. It is primarily included in medications for the purpose of maintaining blood pressure in conditions of hypotension or shock.

This substance acts on the receptors in the blood vessels to narrow them and raise blood pressure. It also improves blood circulation by increasing the contractility of the heart muscle, thereby enhancing heart contractions.

Good to know

Unlike epinephrine, which has similar effects, norepinephrine tartarate hydrate has a stronger effect primarily on vasoconstriction. This makes it specialized for blood pressure control, with relatively less cardiac stimulation effect, but it is advantageous for stable blood pressure elevation.
