General description

Midodrine is a prodrug and a long acting α-adrenergic stimulating agent, and forms an active metabolite, desglymidodrine, which causes an elevation of the systemic blood pressure with the reduction in heart rate.

Application

Midodrine hydrochloride may be used as an analytical reference standard for the quantification of the analyte in biological samples and pharmaceutical formulations using different chromatography techniques.
Refer to the product′s Certificate of Analysis for more information on a suitable instrument technique. Contact Technical Service for further support.

Large-volume paracentesis (LVP) is the treatment of choice for patients with cirrhosis and refractory ascites. However, LVP can lead to postparacentesis circulatory dysfunction (PCD), which is associated with faster ascites recurrence and renal failure. PCD results from vasodilatation, which reduces

POTS (postural tachycardia syndrome) is a chronic form of OI (orthostatic intolerance). Neuropathic POTS is characterized by decreased adrenergic vasoconstriction, whereas hyperadrenergic POTS exhibits increased adrenergic vasoconstriction.
