SIDE EFFECTS

Transient and minor side effects of anxiety, headache, fear, and palpitations often occur with therapeutic doses, especially in hyperthyroid individuals. Repeated local injections can result in necrosis at sites of injection from vascular constriction. "Epinephrine-fastness" can occur with prolonged use.

Read the Ana-Kit (epinephrine, chlorpheniramine) Side Effects Center for a complete guide to possible side effects »

DRUG INTERACTIONS

Use of epinephrine with excessive doses of digitalis, mercurial diuretics, or other drugs that sensitize the heart to arrhythmias is not recommended. Anginal pain may be induced when coronary insufficiency is present.

The effects of epinephrine may be potentiated by tricyclic antidepressants; certain antihista-mines, e.g., diphenhydramine, tripelennamine, d-chlorpheniramine; and sodium l-thyroxine.
