Dopamine Hydrochloride Injection 200 Mg / 5 Ml

Dopamine Hydrochloride Injection USP (200 mg/5 mL) is a potent vasopressor and inotropic agent used to treat various shock states (e.g., septic, cardiogenic) by improving cardiac output and renal perfusion. It is administered as a continuous IV infusion—initially 2–5 µg/kg/min, titrated to effect—after appropriate dilution (40 mg/mL stock). Key precautions include correcting hypovolemia first, using a central line to avoid extravasation necrosis, and continuous ECG/blood-pressure monitoring to detect arrhythmias or hypertension.
