Norepine 4mg Injection

Norepine 4mg Injection is an injection made by All Med Ltd that contains Adrenaline 4mg, a sympathomimetic emergency medicine (epinephrine). It is used for anaphylaxis, cardiac arrest and severe asthma or croup. Pack size: 10 injections.

Uses of Norepine 4mg Injection

Norepine 4mg Injection is a life-saving medicine used for anaphylaxis, a severe allergic reaction that can cause throat swelling, breathing difficulty and collapse. It is also used during cardiopulmonary resuscitation for cardiac arrest, and in hospital may be given for severe croup or very low blood pressure. Some people at risk of anaphylaxis carry an auto-injector for emergencies.

How Norepine 4mg Injection works

Adrenaline acts on alpha and beta receptors throughout the body. It tightens blood vessels to raise blood pressure, relaxes the airways to ease breathing, reduces swelling, and makes the heart beat more strongly, reversing the dangerous effects of anaphylaxis.

Possible side effects

Norepine 4mg Injection acts quickly and commonly causes short-lived effects such as:

• Pounding or fast heartbeat
• Shaking or tremor
• Anxiety or restlessness
• Headache
• Pale skin and sweating
• Nausea

Chest pain, an irregular heartbeat or a very high blood pressure need immediate medical attention; anyone given adrenaline for anaphylaxis should always be checked in hospital.

Precautions and warnings

• In hospital it is given by trained staff; if you use an auto-injector, call for emergency help straight away afterwards, even if you feel better.
• Tell your doctor if you have heart disease, high blood pressure, an overactive thyroid, diabetes or glaucoma, although in anaphylaxis the benefits outweigh the risks.
• Some medicines, including beta-blockers and certain antidepressants, can change how it works.
• If you carry an auto-injector, check its expiry date and learn how to use it.
• It can be used in pregnancy and breastfeeding when needed for an emergency.

Storage

Store as directed on the pack, protected from light. Injections should only be prepared and given by a doctor, nurse or other trained healthcare professional. Keep all medicines out of the reach of children.
