About
Norad Injection contains the active ingredient Noradrenaline, a neurotransmitter and hormone essential for regulating blood pressure and the body’s “fight or flight” response. It is used in the management of various conditions such as hypotension (low blood pressure), septic shock, cardiac arrest, anaphylactic shock, bradycardia, cardiogenic shock, during regional anesthesia, and nasal congestion. Septic shock is a life-threatening condition caused by a severe systemic infection leading to dangerously low blood pressure, organ dysfunction, and inadequate blood flow to vital organs. Cardiogenic shock is a critical state where the heart’s pumping ability is severely impaired, often due to a heart attack or advanced heart failure, resulting in poor blood supply to tissues and organs.
Norad Injection may cause hypersensitivity reactions, ranging from mild skin issues to severe allergic responses, and should be avoided in individuals allergic to its components. Patients with pheochromocytoma, a tumor of the adrenal gland, must not use this medicine as it can worsen their condition. Its use requires careful medical supervision—especially in children and older adults. Pediatric care specialists should be consulted before use in children, while geriatric specialists can help tailor the dose for older adults, considering age-related changes, coexisting health conditions, and other medications. Close monitoring is vital to ensure both safety and effectiveness.
