In large doses, or when it is too frequently repeated, epinephrin depresses the respiration.
2
The most satisfactory action, especially from the epinephrin, is from small doses frequently repeated.
3
The blood pressure rise from epinephrin is quickly over; that from the pituitary extract lasts longer.
4
Hypodermic tablets of epinephrin may also be obtained.
5
Pituitary extract acts somewhat similarly to epinephrin.
6
The rise in blood pressure from epinephrin is due entirely to its action on the peripheral blood vessels and the heart.
7
The hypodermic administration of epinephrin solutions, 1:10,000, or solutions of pituitary extract, 1:10,000, should be considered; they are often valuable.
8
Venous pressure was not much affected by small doses of epinephrin, but with large doses it rose from 10 to 80 mm.
9
Epinephrin has been shown by Hirtz [Footnote: Hirtz: Arch d. mal.

Epinephrin and Pituitary Extract: The blood pressure-raising substance of the suprarenals or of the pituitary gland (hypophysis cerebri) has been much used in heart failure.
