Mephentermine

Common Name

Mephentermine Description

A sympathomimetic agent with mainly indirect effects on adrenergic receptors. It is used to maintain blood pressure in hypotensive states, for example, following spinal anesthesia. Although the central stimliant effects of mephentermine are much less than those of amphetamine, its use may lead to amphetamine-type dependence.
