Enoximone belongs to the imidazole class of compounds, that possess positive inotropic and vasodilatory activities. These pharmacologic effects are caused by selective inhibition of a cAMP-specific phosphodiesterase in the heart and in the smooth muscle of blood vessels. Results obtained

Use of inotropic agents in patients with heart failure (HF) has been limited by adverse effects on outcomes. However, administration of positive inotropes at lower doses and concomitant treatment with beta-blockers might increase benefit-risk ratio. We investigated the effects of
No studies have been reported on the effects of enoximone in anaesthetised colic horses. To examine whether enoximone improves cardiovascular function and reduces dobutamine requirement in anaesthetised colic horses. Forty-eight mature colic horses were enrolled in this prospective, randomised clinical
Enoximone is an inotropic vasodilating agent. Its principal effects are positive inotropism and vasodilation, which are not accompanied by changes in myocardial oxygen consumption. An inotropic dose of enoximone increases the level of cyclic AMP in the isolated, blood-perfused dog
Cyclic nucleotides like cAMP modulate cell function via PKA activation and ion channels.
