Indications of Dopamine-Rotex Injection
A medication called dopamine-Rotex is used to treat low blood pressure brought on by a heart attack, an infection, heart surgery, or trauma. Heart failure can also benefit from it. By improving blood flow throughout the body and enhancing the heart's ability to pump blood, it raises blood pressure. Additionally, Dopamine-Rotex increases urine production and may assist critically ill patients to avoid kidney failure.
Pharmacology
Dopamine stimulates dopaminergic receptors at low doses, causing renal and mesenteric vasodilation; at higher doses, it stimulates both dopaminergic and 1-adrenergic receptors, causing cardiac stimulation and renal vasodilation; and at high doses, it stimulates -adrenergic receptors, causing cardiac stimulation and renal vasodilation; large doses stimulate -adrenergic receptors.
Dosage & Administration
Intravenous-
Acute heart failure:
Adult: Initially, 2-5 mcg/kg/min, increased gradually by up to 5-10 mcg/kg/min according to the patient’s cardiac and urine output. Seriously ill patient: Up to 20-50 mcg/kg/min may be required.
Interaction of Injection
The arrhythmogenic impact of dopamine may be enhanced by cyclopropane and halogenated hydrocarbon anesthetics. -adrenergic agents counteract cardiac effects (e.g. propranolol, metoprolol). The vasoconstricting effect of high-dose dopamine may be counteracted by -adrenergic-blocking drugs. MAOIs have a longer-lasting and stronger effect. With phenytoin, there is a risk of hypotension and bradycardia. Hydrochlorothiazide or furosemide's diuretic impact may be amplified. TCAs and guanethidine have a stronger vasopressor impact. Ergot alkaloids may cause significant vasoconstriction.
Contraindications
Pheochromocytoma, atrial or ventricular tachyarrhythmias, ventricular fibrillation, hyperthyroidism, and concurrent usage with ergotamine are all contraindications to dopamine administration.
