Indications: urinary incontinence, relive symptoms of some allergic disorders such as asthma and hay fever. Drug Classification: Sympathomimetic Mechanism of Action: The phenylpropanolamine HCl is a sympathomimetic amine with a chemical structure and pharmacological actions similar to the ephedrine, but with fewer central stimulant effects. It is a vasoconstrictor with decongestant action on the nose and upper respiratory tract mucous membranes. It directly and indirectly stimulates the a- and b-adrenergic receptors. It exerts this last action by allowing the norepinephrine liberation (noradrenaline) from its storage sites. Its action on the a- receptors in the respiratory tract mucosa produces vasoconstriction, which results in the decrease of the mucosa edema and the consequent increase of the nasal air flow. Dosage: Adults 25 mg at 4-hr intervals or 50 mg at 8-hr intervals, as indicated. Children 6-12 yr: 25 mg at 8-hr intervals; 2-6 yr: 12.5 mg q 8 hrs; elixir: 20 mg/ml.
