Question 1

Is Epinephrine a vasoconstrictor?

Accepted Answer

Yes, Epinephrine is a vasoconstrictor that tightens blood vessels by stimulating alpha-adrenergic receptors, which helps raise blood pressure during emergencies like anaphylaxis or septic shock.

Question 2

What is the difference between Epinephrine and Norepinephrine?

Accepted Answer

Epinephrine acts more broadly on both alpha and beta receptors, whereas Norepinephrine primarily affects alpha receptors, causing vasoconstriction and increasing blood pressure.

Question 3

How long to wait between Epinephrine doses?

Accepted Answer

If symptoms of anaphylaxis persist, you can administer a second dose within 5-15 minutes after the first one. Always seek emergency medical attention after the first dose.

Question 4

Can a higher dose of Epinephrine be given to a young child if no lower-dose device is available?

Accepted Answer

During emergencies, if a lower dose of 0.15 mg is not available, a higher dose of 0.3 mg may be given with caution. However, this should only be done under medical supervision, as dosing in children is weight-based.
