Cardiovascular

Midodrine

Midodrine is an orally administered alpha-1 adrenergic receptor agonist used mainly to treat symptomatic orthostatic hypotension, the fall in blood pressure that occurs on standing. It acts as a prodrug, converting in the body to the active compound desglymidodrine, which narrows blood vessels and raises blood pressure. Marketed under brand names such as ProAmatine and Gutron, it was approved for medical use in the United States in 1996 and is now available as a generic.
