Epinephrine is the drug of choice in the emergency treatment of severe acute anaphylactic reactions including anaphylactic shock. Symptoms such as urticaria, pruritus, angioedema, and swelling of the lips, eyelids, and tongue which may result from reactions to drugs, sera, insect stings, food, or other allergens may be relieved by epinephrine. Epinephrine should be given to all patients with signs of systemic reactions, particularly hypotension, airway swelling, or definite breathing difficulty. Circulatory support during anaphylactic shock requires rapid volume resuscitation and vasopressor therapy to support blood pressure; epinephrine is the drug of choice for the treatment of both vasodilation/hypotension and cardiac arrest associated with anaphylaxis. /Included in US product label/
American Society of Health System Pharmacists; AHFS Drug Information 2009. Bethesda, MD. (2009), p. 1389
Epinephrine may be added to solutions of some local anesthetics to decrease the rate of vascular absorption of the anesthetic, thereby localizing anesthesia and prolonging the duration of anesthesia; the risk of systemic toxicity from the local anesthetic is also decreased. Epinephrine may be applied topically to control superficial bleeding from arterioles or capillaries in the skin, mucous membranes, or other tissues. Bleeding from larger vessels is not controllable by topical application of epinephrine. /Included in US product label/
American Society of Health System Pharmacists; AHFS Drug Information 2009. Bethesda, MD. (2009), p. 1390
Epinephrine is used for its a-adrenergic stimulatory effects to increase blood flow in advanced cardiovascular life support (ACLS) during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). The principal beneficial effects of the drug in patients with cardiac arrest result from increases in aortic diastolic blood pressure and in myocardial and cerebral blood flow during resuscitation. The value and safety of the beta-adrenergic effects of epinephrine are controversial because they may increase myocardial work and reduce subendocardial perfusion. Epinephrine remains a drug of choice and a high priority for ACLS in cardiac arrest to facilitate return of spontaneous circulation. /Included in US product label/

Vet: epinephrine injection (1:1000): do not use in acute hypotension produced by phenothiazine derived tranquilizers, since further depression of blood pressure can occur. Do not use when cyclopropane or halogenated anesthetics are used because of possible cardiac collapse. Do not use in treatment of vascular shock. Do not use in patients known to be sensitive to epinephrine ... Use with caution in hyperthyroid animals; animals being treated with thyroid, digitalis, or mercurial diuretics. Do not use injection if it is brown or contains a precipitate.

A prospective study where topical epinephrine was used on burn and non-burn patients and five patients served as controls without epinephrine usage. Catecholamine concentrations were measured and to estimate the systemic effects of epinephrine, serum lactate and pyruvate concentrations were analyzed and perioperative haemodynamic changes recorded. Compared to the baseline values, there was a significant increase in the heart rate, serum epinephrine and lactate concentrations and LP-ratios in the burn patients and an increase in the epinephrine concentrations in the non-burn patients at 1 and 2 h. Epinephrine and lactate concentrations and LP-ratios were also higher in the burn patients compared to the other groups. Altogether, there were no changes in the control group. This study showed that the use of topical epinephrine has systemic effects on hemodynamics and serum epinephrine concentrations. Increased epinephrine concentrations in burn patients suggest increased absorption properties in these patients. The increased lactate concentrations and LP-ratios suggest tissue ischaemia, likely in skin.

Some manufacturers state that epinephrine is contraindicated for parenteral use during the second stage of labor; parenteral administration of the drug to maintain blood pressure during spinal anesthesia for delivery can cause acceleration of fetal heart rate and should not be used in obstetric patients when maternal systolic/diastolic blood pressure exceeds 130/80 mm Hg. Epinephrine should be administered cautiously by oral inhalation to pregnant patients. Epinephrine should be used during pregnancy only if the potential benefits justify the possible risks to the fetus. There is some evidence that epidural administration of lidocaine with epinephrine during labor is safe.

Epinephrine injection is indicated in the emergency treatment of allergic reactions (Type I) including anaphylaxis to stinging insects (e.g., order Hymenoptera, which include bees, wasps, hornets, yellow jackets and fire ants) and biting insects (e.g., triatoma, mosquitos), allergen immunotherapy, foods, drugs, diagnostic testing substances (e.g., radiocontrast media) and other allergens, as well as idiopathic anaphylaxis or exercise-induced anaphylaxis. Injectable epinephrine is intended for immediate/urgent administration in patients, who are found to be at increased risk for anaphylaxis, including individuals with a history of anaphylaxis. Selection of the appropriate dosage strength is determined according to body weight. Epinephrine's cardiac effects may be of use in restoring cardiac rhythm in cardiac arrest due to various causes but is not used in cardiac failure or in hemorrhagic, traumatic, or cardiogenic shock. Epinephrine is used as a hemostatic agent. It is also used in treating mucosal congestion of hay fever, rhinitis, and acute sinusitis; to relieve bronchial asthmatic paroxysms; in syncope due to complete heart block or carotid sinus hypersensitivity; for symptomatic relief of serum sickness, urticaria, angioneurotic edema; for resuscitation in cardiac arrest following anesthetic accidents; in simple (open angle) glaucoma; for relaxation of uterine musculature and to inhibit uterine contractions. Epinephrine injection can be utilized to prolong the action of local anesthetics. In addition to the above, epinephrine is used as an over the counter (OTC) agent for the intermittent symptoms of asthma, such as wheezing, tightness of chest and shortness of breath. It is also used for the maintenance of mydriasis during intraocular surgery.
FDA Label
Epinephrine is a sympathomimetic drug. It causes an adrenergic receptive mechanism on effector cells and mimics all actions of the sympathetic nervous system except those on the facial arteries and sweat glands. Important effects of epinephrine include increased heart rate, myocardial contractility, and renin release via beta-1 receptors. Beta-2 effects produce bronchodilation which may be useful as an adjunct treatment of asthma exacerbations as well as vasodilation, tocolysis, and increased aqueous humor production. In croup, nebulized epinephrine is associated with both clinically and statistically significant transient reduction of croup symptoms 30 minutes post-treatment. Epinephrine also alleviates pruritus, urticaria, and angioedema and may be helpful in relieving gastrointestinal and genitourinary symptoms associated with anaphylaxis because of its relaxing effects on the smooth muscle of the stomach, intestine, uterus, and urinary bladder.

Absorption
Following I.V. (intravenous) injection, epinephrine disappears rapidly from the blood stream. Subcutaneously or I.M. (intramuscular) administered epinephrine has a rapid onset and short duration of action. Subcutaneous (SC) administration during asthmatic attacks may produce bronchodilation within 5 to 10 minutes, and maximal effects may occur within 20 minutes. The drug becomes fixed in the tissues rapidly,.
Route of Elimination
The majority of the dose of epinephrine is seen excreted in the urine,. About 40% of a parenteral dose of epinephrine is excreted in urine as metanephrine, 40% as VMA, 7% as 3-methoxy-4-hydroxyphenoglycol, 2% as 3,4-dihydroxymandelic acid, and the rest as acetylated derivatives. These metabolites are excreted mainly as the sulfate conjugates and, to a lesser extent, the glucuronide conjugates. Only small amounts of the drug are excreted completely unchanged.
Clearance
Intravenous injection produces an immediate and intensified response. Following intravenous injection, epinephrine disappears rapidly from the blood stream.
Following topical application of radiolabeled epinephrine to the eye in rabbits, highest concentrations of the drug in tissues and fluids other than the eye occurred in the pituitary gland, with lower concentrations in the intestine, fat, adrenal gland, kidney, heart, lung, spleen, ovary, pancreas, liver, uterus, muscle, brain, and serum. In humans, systemically absorbed epinephrine crosses the placenta but not the blood-brain barrier. Systemically absorbed epinephrine distributes into milk.

Epinephrine is not effective after oral admin because it is rapidly conjugated and oxidized in GI mucosa and liver. Absorption from sc tissues occurs slowly because of local vasoconstriction ... Absorption is more rapid after im than after sc injection ... Epinephrine is rapidly inactivated in the body.

In a prospective, randomized, five-way crossover study in rabbits, ... plasma epinephrine concentrations /were measured/ before, and at intervals up to 180 min after epinephrine administration by intramuscular or subcutaneous injection, or by inhalation, with intravenous epinephrine and intramuscular saline as the positive and negative controls, respectively. Maximum plasma epinephrine concentrations were higher, and occurred more rapidly, after intramuscular injection than after subcutaneous injection or inhalation, and were 7719+/-3943 (S.E.M.) pg/mL at 32.5+/-6.6 min, 2692+/-863 pg/mL at 111.7+/-30.8 min and 1196+/-369 pg/mL at 45. 8+/-19.2 min, respectively. Intravenous injection of epinephrine resulted in a plasma concentration of 3544+/-422 pg/mL at 5 min, and an elimination half-life (t(1/2)) of 11.0+/-2.5 min. In the saline control study, the endogenous epinephrine concentration peaked at 518+/-142 pg/mL. CONCLUSION: In this model, absorption of epinephrine was significantly faster after intramuscular injection than after subcutaneous injection or inhalation. The extent of absorption was satisfactory after both intramuscular and subcutaneous injections. Neither the rate nor the extent of absorption was satisfactory after administration by inhalation.

3 groups of 5 greyhounds received 1.5 ug/kg epinephrine 1:200,000 in either lidocaine 0.5%, bupivacaine 0.5% or 0.9% saline. Dogs were anesthetized and 40% of the allocated epinephrine solution was infiltrated beneath the perianal skin and each of the 4 quadrants of the rectal mucosa was injected with the remainder of the solution. Plasma epinephrine, lidocaine, bupivacaine, lactate, glucose and potassium concn were measured at 1, 2, 5, 10 and 30 min following infiltration. Peak plasma epinephrine concn were recorded 2 min following rectal mucosal infiltration in all 3 groups. Plasma epinephrine concn were significantly higher (p < 0.01) in the lidocaine group at 1 and 2 min following infiltration. Both plasma bupivacaine and lidocaine peaked 10 min after infiltration and thereafter tended to decr towards baseline concn. Plasma bupivacaine concn were significantly higher (p < 0.01) than plasma lidocaine concn throughout the study period. There were no significant differences in metabolic or biochemical indices within or between the 3 groups. However, both plasma glucose and lactate concn were elevated and peaked 10 min after infiltration, while plasma potassium concn remained unchanged throughout the study period. Heart rate in the bupivacaine group was significantly reduced at 30 min following infiltration (p < 0.05). There were no significant differences observed in the mean arterial and pulse pressures among the 3 groups.

Epinephrine is well absorbed after subcutaneous or IM injection; absorption can be hastened by massaging the injection site. Both rapid and prolonged absorption occur after subcutaneous injection of the longer-acting aqueous suspension (no longer commercially available in the US). Epinephrine also is absorbed following endotracheal administration, although serum concentrations achieved may be only 10% of those with an equivalent IV dose.. After oral inhalation of epinephrine in the usual dosage, absorption is slight and the effects of the drug are restricted mainly to the respiratory tract. Absorption increases somewhat when larger doses are inhaled, and systemic effects may occur.

Epinephrine is rapidly inactivated mainly by enzymic transformation to metanephrine or normetanephrine, either of which is then conjugated and excreted in the urine in the form of both sulfates and glucuronides. Either sequence results in the formation of 3-methoxy-4- hydroxy-mandelic acid(vanillylmandelic acid, VMA) which is shown to be detectable in the urine. Epinephrine is rapidly inactivated in the body mostly by the enzymes COMT (catechol-O-methyltransferase) and MAO (monoamine oxidase). The liver is abundant in the above enzymes, and is a primary, although not essential, tissue in the degradation process.
The pharmacologic actions of epinephrine are terminated mainly by uptake and metabolism in sympathetic nerve endings. Circulating drug is metabolized in the liver and other tissues by a combination of reactions involving the enzymes catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) and monoamine oxidase (MAO). The major metabolites are metanephrine and 3-methoxy-4-hydroxymandelic acid (vanillylmandelic acid, VMA) both of which are inactive. About 40% of a parenteral dose of epinephrine is excreted in urine as metanephrine, 40% as VMA, 7% as 3-methoxy-4-hydroxyphenoglycol, 2% as 3,4-dihydroxymandelic acid, and the remainder as acetylated derivatives. These metabolites are excreted mostly as the sulfate conjugates and, to a lesser extent, the glucuronide conjugates. Only small amounts of the drug are excreted unchanged.

The plasma half-life is approximately 2-3 minutes. However, when administered by subcutaneous or intramuscular injection, local vasoconstriction may delay absorption so that epinephrine's effects may last longer than the half-life suggests.
Elimination half life is 1 minute.

Epinephrine acts on alpha and beta-adrenergic receptors. Epinephrine acts on alpha and beta receptors and is the strongest alpha receptor activator. Through its action on alpha-adrenergic receptors, epinephrine minimizes the vasodilation and increased the vascular permeability that occurs during anaphylaxis, which can cause the loss of intravascular fluid volume as well as hypotension. Epinephrine relaxes the smooth muscle of the bronchi and iris and is a histamine antagonist, rendering it useful in treating the manifestations of allergic reactions and associated conditions. This drug also produces an increase in blood sugar and increases glycogenolysis in the liver. Through its action on beta-adrenergic receptors, epinephrine leads to bronchial smooth muscle relaxation that helps to relieve bronchospasm, wheezing, and dyspnea that may occur during anaphylaxis.
The mechanism of rise in blood pressure ... is threefold: a direct myocardial stimulation that increases the strength of ventricular contraction (positive inotropic action), an increased heart rate (positive chronotropic action), vasoconstriction in many vascular beds, especially in precapillary resistance vessels of skin, mucosa, and kidney, along with marked constriction of veins.

... Epinephrine affects respiration primarily by relaxing bronchial muscle. It has a powerful bronchodilator action, most evident when bronchial muscle is contracted because of disease, as in bronchial asthma, or in response to drugs or various autacoids. In such situations, epinephrine has a striking therapeutic effect as a physiological antagonist to substances that cause bronchoconstriction. The beneficial effects of epinephrine in asthma also may arise from inhibition of antigen-induced release of inflammatory mediators from mast cells, and to a lesser extent from diminution of bronchial secretions and congestion within the mucosa. Inhibition of mast cell secretion is mediated by beta2 receptors, while the effects on the mucosa are mediated by alpha receptors

The electrophysiologic effects of circulating epinephrine in humans were examined in four study groups of 10 subjects each. In 10 subjects without structural heart disease (Group 1) and in 10 patients with coronary disease or dilated cardiomyopathy (Group 2) epinephrine infusion at 25 and 50 ng/kg body weight per min for 14 min resulted in an elevation of the plasma epinephrine concentration in the physiologic range. In both groups it produced a dose-dependent decrease in the effective refractory period of the atrium, atrioventricular node and ventricle and improvement in atrioventricular node conduction. Epinephrine facilitated the induction of sustained ventricular tachycardia in 3 of the 20 subjects. In Group 3, a beta-adrenergic blocking dose of propranolol was added to the infusion of 50 ng/kg per min of epinephrine. Propranolol not only reversed the effects of epinephrine, but also lengthened these variables compared with baseline values. In group 4, propranolol was administered first, followed by 50 ng/kg per min of epinephrine. Propranolol alone slowed atrioventricular node conduction and mildly prolonged the refractory periods. In the presence of beta-blockade, epinephrine had no effect on atrioventricular node properties but resulted in a lengthening of the atrial and ventricular effective refractory periods. In conclusion, epinephrine in physioloic doses shortens the effective refractory period of the atrium, atrioventricular node and ventricle, improves atrioventricular node conduction and may facilitate the induction of sustained ventricular tachycardia. The overall electrophysiologic effects of epinephrine result from stimulation of beta-receptors. Stimulation of alpha-receptors by epinephrine has no effect on the atrioventricular node but prolongs the effective refractory period of the atrium and ventricle, partially offsetting the shortening of refractory periods mediated by beta-receptor stimulation.

Epinephrine plays a key role in the control of vasomotor tone; however, the participation of the NO/cGMP pathway in response to beta-adrenoceptor activation remains controversial. To evaluate the involvement of the endothelium in the vascular response to epinephrine, we assessed NO production, endothelial NO synthase phosphorylation, and tissue accumulation of cGMP in the perfused arterial mesenteric bed of rat. Epinephrine elicited a concentration-dependent increase in NO (EC(50) of 45.7 pM), which was coupled to cGMP tissue accumulation. Both NO and cGMP production were blocked by either endothelium removal (saponin) or NO synthase inhibition (N(omega)-nitro-L-arginine). Blockade of beta(1)- and beta(2)-adrenoceptors with 1 microM propranolol or beta(3)-adrenoceptor with 10 nM SR 59230A displaced rightward the concentration-NO production curve evoked by epinephrine. Selective stimulation of beta(1)-, beta(2)-, or beta(3)-adrenoceptors also resulted in NO and cGMP production. Propranolol (1 microM) inhibited the rise in NO induced by isoproterenol or the beta(2)-adrenoceptor agonists salbutamol, terbutaline, or fenoterol. Likewise, 10 nM SR 59230A reduced the effects of the beta(3)-adrenoceptor agonists BRL 37344, CGP 12177, SR 595611A, or pindolol. The NO production induced by epinephrine and BRL 37344 was associated with the activation of the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/Akt pathway and phosphorylation of eNOS in serine 1177. In addition, in anaesthetized rats, bolus administration of isoproterenol, salbutamol, or BRL 37344 produced NO-dependent reductions in systolic blood pressure. These findings indicate that beta(1)-, beta(2)-, and beta(3)-adrenoceptors are coupled to the NO/cGMP pathway, highlighting the role of the endothelium in the vasomotor action elicited by epinephrine and related beta-adrenoceptor agonists.
