Dopamine acts in different ways, depending on the dose given. At low doses, dopamine
increases blood flow to the kidneys. At higher doses, it increases the blood flow
to the muscles and can increase the heart’s pumping efficiency.
Dopamine may be used to increase low blood pressure in people who have:
experienced a heart attack
a severe infection
lost blood during an accident
kidney failure
problems after surgery.
Dopamine may be used to help the heart pump better in some people with congestive
heart failure.
Your doctor may have prescribed DBL Sterile Dopamine Concentrate for another reason.
Ask your doctor if you have any questions about why DBL Sterile Dopamine Concentrate
has been prescribed for you.
There is no evidence that dopamine is addictive.
