Reactions to Ephedrine

Intraoperative Ephedrine Allergy in a Patient Who Received Chemotherapy and Perioperative Hypersensitivity Reactions.

Anaesthesia represents a specific set-up in respect to pharmacology, and during this time, early hypersensitivity reactions or anaphylaxis may occur in patients who are exposed to a great number of foreign substances. Intravenous ephedrine (5 mg) was applied to a 37-year-old patient due to the development of intraoperative hypotension in a total abdominal hysterectomy operation. After applicati...

Atropine and ephedrine adsorption

The purpose of this study was to compare daily changes in the concentration of atropine or ephedrine sulfate solutions that had been stored up to 4 days in plastic or glass syringes. Sets of three plastic and one glass syringe were used for each drug; the glass syringes acted as controls. Each set of syringes was labeled as day 0, 1, 2, 3, or 4. Syringes with medication were laid horizontally, ...

Biotransformation for L-ephedrine production.

L-ephedrine is widely used in pharmaceutical preparations as a decongestant and anti-asthmatic compound. One of the key intermediates in its production is L-phenylacetylcarbinol (L-PAC) which can be obtained either from plants (Ephedra sp.), chemical synthesis involving resolution of a racemic mixture, or by biotransformation of benzaldehyde using various yeasts. In the present review, recent s...

Ephedrine QoS: An Antidote to Slow, Congested, Bufferless NoCs

Datacenters consolidate diverse applications to improve utilization. However when multiple applications are colocated on such platforms, contention for shared resources like networks-on-chip (NoCs) can degrade the performance of latency-critical online services (high-priority applications). Recently proposed bufferless NoCs (Nychis et al.) have the advantages of requiring less area and power, b...
