Epinephrine 0.1mg/mL (1:10,000)

Epinephrine 0.1 mg/mL (1:10,000) is a critical, life-saving medication used during advanced cardiac life support (ACLS) protocols, particularly in the treatment of cardiac arrest, anaphylaxis, and severe allergic reactions. This concentration is formulated for intravenous (IV) or intraosseous (IO) administration during resuscitation efforts.

Key Features and Benefits

Life-Saving Emergency Use
Epinephrine plays a central role in ACLS and emergency care by stimulating alpha and beta-adrenergic receptors, increasing heart rate, cardiac output, and blood pressure during life-threatening events.

Precise Dosage and Formulation
Each milliliter contains 0.1 mg of epinephrine in a 1:10,000 concentration, offering accurate and controlled dosing for IV or IO use in adult and pediatric patients.

Single-Use, Sterile Packaging
Each unit is individually packaged and sterile, reducing the risk of contamination and ensuring immediate readiness in emergencies.

Fast-Acting Formula
The injectable solution delivers rapid results, helping restore spontaneous circulation in cardiac arrest and reversing severe hypotension or bronchospasm.

Widely Used in Healthcare Settings
Essential for use in emergency rooms, ambulances, ICUs, and other critical care environments, this formulation is a staple in crash carts and emergency medication kits.

Common Uses

• Cardiac Arrest: Primary medication used during CPR for patients experiencing asystole or pulseless electrical activity (PEA).

• Anaphylaxis: Used when intramuscular epinephrine is ineffective or delayed.

• Severe Hypotension: Helps stabilize patients with dangerously low blood pressure.

• Respiratory Distress: Useful in managing bronchospasm unresponsive to other treatments during resuscitation efforts.

How to Use

1. Preparation: Confirm the proper dosage and check for clarity and expiration before administration.

2. Administration: Administer 1 mg (10 mL of 0.1 mg/mL solution) IV/IO every 3–5 minutes during cardiac arrest, as recommended by ACLS guidelines.

3. Monitoring: Continuously monitor ECG, blood pressure, and oxygenation during and after administration.

Precautions and Safety Tips

• Use Only as Directed: For IV/IO use only — not intended for intramuscular or subcutaneous injection.

• Avoid Overdose: Overuse may result in excessive hypertension, arrhythmias, or myocardial ischemia.

• Storage: Store at controlled room temperature and protect from light.

• Allergic Reactions: Though rare, monitor for adverse effects including headache, anxiety, or tremors.
