Adrenergic Agonists

Adrenergic agonists are medications that activate specific receptors in the body’s sympathetic nervous system, mimicking the effects of adrenaline. They help respond to stress by increasing heart rate, narrowing blood vessels, and opening airways. These drugs are used in emergencies like asthma attacks, low blood pressure, or heart issues to improve circulation, breathing, and alertness. By selectively targeting different adrenergic receptors, they can produce various effects suited to specific medical needs, making them powerful tools in treating or managing acute and chronic conditions.
