Description
Adrenalin Epinephrine Injection (1:1000) 1 mg Single-Dose Vials x 25/tray (Rx)
Adrenalin (epinephrine) for injection is a hormone that is produced by the adrenal gland. It is released into the blood when the body is stressed. Adrenalin speeds up the heart rate and raises blood pressure. It also opens up the air passages in the lungs, making it easier to breathe. Adrenalin Epinephrine Injection 1mg (1:1000) Vial by JHP Pharmaceuticals is a sterile, single-dose vial used for emergency treatment of allergic reactions. Adrenalin (epinephrine injection, USP) is a clear, colorless, sterile solution containing 1 mg/mL (1:1000) epinephrine, packaged as 1 mL of solution in a single-use clear glass vial.
In the 1 mL vial, each 1 mL of Adrenalin® solution contains 1 mg epinephrine, 9.0 mg sodium chloride, 1.0 mg sodium metabisulfite, hydrochloric acid to adjust pH, and water for injection.
Adrenalin Epinephrine Injection can help to open up air passages and make breathing easier for people with various lung problems such as severe asthma.
