Nor-ADR Injection is a brand of Noradrenaline (Norepinephrine) Bitartrate Injection, manufactured by American Remedies. It is primarily used in critical care settings to manage severe hypotension (low blood pressure) and shock. ________________________________________ ✅ Primary Uses Nor-ADR Injection is indicated for: • Septic Shock: A life-threatening condition caused by severe infection leading to dangerously low blood pressure. • Cardiogenic Shock: A state where the heart is unable to pump sufficient blood to meet the body's needs. Anaphylactic Shock: A severe allergic reaction causing a sudden drop in blood pressure. • Hypotension During Surgery or Trauma: To maintain adequate blood pressure during and after surgical procedures or traumatic events. • Cardiac Arrest: As an adjunct in the management of cardiac arrest to improve blood flow to vital organs. These indications are supported by clinical guidelines and pharmacological references. ________________________________________ ⚙️ Mechanism of Action Noradrenaline is a potent vasopressor that works by: Alpha-1 Adrenergic Receptor Activation: Causing vasoconstriction, which increases systemic vascular resistance and raises blood pressure. • Beta-1 Adrenergic Receptor Activation: Increasing heart rate and myocardial contractility, thereby enhancing cardiac output. This dual action helps restore blood pressure and improve perfusion to vital organs in shock states. ________________________________________ ⚠️ Precautions and Side Effects Precautions: • Administration: Should be administered intravenously under strict medical supervision, typically in an intensive care unit (ICU) setting. • Monitoring: Continuous monitoring of blood pressure and heart rate is essential during administration. • Contraindications: Should not be used in patients with mesenteric or peripheral vascular thrombosis unless absolutely necessary. Common Side Effects: • Hypertension (high blood pressure) • Headache Nausea • Anxiety • Dizziness Serious Side Effects: • Arrhythmias (irregular heartbeats) • Tissue necrosis at the injection site • Reduced renal perfusion leading to renal failure Immediate medical attention is required if any serious side effects occur.

Magnesium Chloride Injection is a sterile solution used to treat or prevent magnesium deficiency and related conditions. It's typically given when oral magnesium supplements are ineffective or inappropriate (e.g., in emergencies or hospitalized patients). 🔹 Main Uses of Magnesium Chloride Injection: 🧪 Treatment of Hypomagnesemia (Low Magnesium Levels) Used when blood magnesium levels drop too low, which can cause muscle cramps, fatigue, tremors, and arrhythmias. Common in alcoholics, diabetics, or those with malabsorption syndromes. 🫀 Cardiac Arrhythmias Especially effective in treating: Torsades de pointes (a type of ventricular tachycardia) Irregular heartbeats due to magnesium deficiency. 🤰 Eclampsia and Pre-eclampsia (Pregnancy-related Seizures) Magnesium sulfate is more commonly used, but magnesium chloride may be considered as an alternative. 💨 Severe Asthma Attacks (Adjunct Therapy) Can help relax bronchial smooth muscle and improve breathing during status asthmaticus when other treatments fail. ⚕️ Electrolyte Imbalance Correction Often used with other electrolytes (like potassium) in critical care settings to restore balance in ICU patients. 💉 How It's Given: Intravenously (IV) or Intramuscularly (IM) by a healthcare professional. Dosage depends on the severity of magnesium deficiency or the condition being treated. ⚠️ Precautions & Side Effects: Monitor serum magnesium levels to avoid overdose. High levels can cause: Low blood pressure Flushing Muscle weakness Slow heart rate Respiratory depression or cardiac arrest in severe overdose Use with caution in patients with kidney disease, as magnesium is excreted by the kidneys. ✅ Summary: Condition Use of MgCl Injection Hypomagnesemia ✅ Yes Torsades de Pointes ✅ Yes Pre-eclampsia / Eclampsia ✅ Alternative (to MgSO₄) Severe Asthma (adjunct) ✅ Yes Routine supplementation ⚠️ Only in hospital/clinical setting

Disodium Edetate Injection (also written as EDTA Disodium or Disodium EDTA) is a chelating agent with very limited and specific medical uses due to the risk of serious side effects. 🔹 Approved Medical Uses of Disodium Edetate Injection: 🔻 Treatment of Severe Hypercalcemia Primary use: Treats life-threatening high calcium levels in the blood. It binds to excess calcium ions and helps remove them from the body via the kidneys. 💊 Digitalis (Digoxin) Toxicity (rare/adjunct) In cases of digoxin overdose, disodium EDTA may be used to lower calcium, which worsens digoxin's toxic effects. ⚠️ NOT for Lead Poisoning ⚠️ Very important: Disodium EDTA is not used for lead poisoning. It can dangerously lower blood calcium and cause fatal hypocalcemia. The safe version for lead chelation is Calcium Disodium EDTA (CaNa₂EDTA). 💉 How It’s Given: Intravenously (IV) and must be administered slowly. Requires monitoring of calcium and kidney function. ⚠️ Risks and Side Effects: Severe hypocalcemia (can cause seizures, cardiac arrhythmias, or death).
