Levofed
Levofed (Norepinephrine Bitartrate) is a potent vasopressor used to treat acute hypotension and shock. It acts mainly on alpha-adrenergic receptors to cause vasoconstriction, increasing blood pressure, with mild beta-1 activity that supports cardiac output. It is commonly used in septic shock and other critical care settings to maintain adequate organ perfusion. Norepinephrine is given by continuous IV infusion with close monitoring of blood pressure and perfusion status.
