Resumo

Phenylephrine is an alpha-1 agonist vasoconstrictor and dihydroergotamine also constricts blood vessels, so combined use can produce marked vasoconstriction and a rise in blood pressure. Peripheral or cerebral ischemia is possible, especially with systemic phenylephrine exposure.

O que esta interação significa em palavras simples

Dihydroergotamine intranasal and Phenylephrine can interact in a way that may be serious. Using them together is sometimes necessary, but it needs a deliberate decision by the prescriber, a plan for monitoring, and clear advice on the warning signs to watch for.

Nível de evidência: Moderate

Por que acontece
