The receptors most relevant to the pharmacology of vasopressors are adrenoceptors. Adrenoceptors, sometimes referred to as adrenergic receptors, interact with norepinephrine, epinephrine, and chemically similar drugs (called adrenomimetic, adrenergic, or sympathomimetic agents).
Low dose vasopressin is not recommended as the single initial vasopressor for treatment of. sepsis-induced hypotension and vasopressin doses higher than 0.03-0.04 units/minute should be. reserved for salvage therapy (failure to achieve adequate MAP with other vasopressor agents) (UG).
