Aspect	Details
Mechanism of Action	Doxapram HCl is a respiratory stimulant that acts through peripheral carotid chemoreceptors and directly stimulates the central respiratory center. It increases the medullary respiratory drive, resulting in increased tidal volume and respiratory rate.
Indications	– Used to stimulate respiration in patients with respiratory depression due to anesthesia or other causes.<br>- May also be used to treat apnea of prematurity and other conditions where respiratory support is needed.
Pharmacokinetics	– Distribution: Volume of distribution is 1.51 L/kg.<br>- Metabolism: Metabolized to several active metabolites.<br>- Elimination: Plasma concentration declines in a multi-exponential fashion with a half-life of approximately 3.4 hours.<br>- Excretion: Less than 5% of an IV dose is excreted unchanged in urine within 24 hours.
Side Effects	– Common: Pain and redness at the injection site, warmth, flushing, sweating, headache, dizziness, nausea, diarrhea, and enlarged pupils.<br>- Serious: Cardiac arrhythmias (e.g., ventricular tachycardia, fibrillation), hypertension, seizures, and QT interval prolongation.<br>- Neonates: QT interval prolongation, bloody stools, necrotizing enterocolitis, neurodevelopmental delay, and other adverse effects.
Precautions	– Use with caution in patients with hypertension, cardiovascular disease, or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).<br>- Avoid rapid infusion to prevent hemolysis and other adverse effects.<br>- Monitor blood pressure, pulse rate, and deep tendon reflexes to prevent overdose.<br>- Not recommended for patients with epilepsy or other seizure disorders.<br>- Caution in patients receiving sympathomimetic or monoamine oxidase inhibiting drugs.
Contraindications	– Hypersensitivity to doxapram or any component of the injection.<br>- Patients with epilepsy or other seizure disorders.
