Dobutam 250mg Injection 1

Dobutam 250mg Injection 1 interacts with the following medicines:

• Beta Blockers such as Atenolol, Metoprolol, Propranolol: Beta blockers can antagonize the effects of Dobutamine by reducing its ability to stimulate the heart. This can decrease its efficacy in improving heart function.
• Alpha Blockers such as Doxazosin, Tamsulosin, Terazosin: Alpha blockers can interact with Dobutamine, potentially causing an excessive drop in blood pressure, as both medications can affect vascular tone.
• Vasodilators such as Nitroglycerin, Hydralazine, Isosorbide Dinitrate: Combining vasodilators with Dobutamine may cause a significant reduction in blood pressure, which might necessitate careful monitoring.
• Antidiabetics such as Metformin, Insulin, Glimepiride: Dobutamine may affect blood sugar levels by influencing the metabolic rate, potentially altering the efficacy of antidiabetic medications. Blood sugar monitoring is advised.
• ACE Inhibitors such as Enalapril, Lisinopril, Ramipril: ACE inhibitors may increase the risk of low blood pressure when used alongside Dobutamine, necessitating careful dose adjustments.
• Inhaled Anaesthetics such as Isoflurane, Sevoflurane, Halothane:  Combining Dobutamine with inhaled anesthetics may increase the risk of arrhythmias, requiring close monitoring during surgeries.

Dobutam 250mg Injection 1 interacts with the following diseases:

• Narrowing in the Heart or Blood Vessels: Conditions like aortic stenosis or other structural obstructions can worsen when Dobutamine increases heart contractility, potentially leading to dangerous complications.
• Inadequate Circulatory Filling (Hypovolemia): Dobutamine may be ineffective in patients with low blood volume, as adequate circulatory filling is essential for its therapeutic effects.
• High Blood Pressure Due to a Tumor Near the Kidney (Pheochromocytoma): Dobutamine can amplify the effects of excess stress hormones released by the tumor, causing severe hypertension or heart rhythm disturbances.
