Vasopressors

Vasopressors may be initiated peripherally while central access is being obtained — do not delay for central line placement (SSC 2021).[1]

Pressor Initial Dose Max Dose Cardiac Effect BP Effect Arrhythmias Special Notes
Dobutamine 2-5 mcg/kg/min 20 mcg/kg/min (up to 40 in refractory cases)[2] Strong β₁ agonist (+inotrope, +chronotrope); weak β₂ agonist (+vasodilation) Minimal α effect; may decrease BP due to β₂ vasodilation Variable HR effects; can cause tachycardia Indicated in decompensated systolic CHF and cardiogenic shock with adequate BP. Not a vasopressor — it is an inotrope. Must be used with a vasopressor if hypotensive.
Dopamine 2-5 mcg/kg/min 20 mcg/kg/min β₁ and endogenous norepinephrine release Mixed α and β effects at all doses; α effects predominate at higher doses Arrhythmogenic from β₁ effects More adverse events (especially arrhythmia) when used in shock compared to norepinephrine[3]. SSC 2021 suggests against dopamine as first-line except in select patients with bradycardia and low risk of tachyarrhythmia.
Epinephrine 1-10 mcg/min (0.01-0.1 mcg/kg/min) 0.5 mcg/kg/min +Inotropy, +chronotropy (β₁) Low dose: β₂ vasodilation may predominate; high dose: α₁ vasoconstriction predominates Significant — tachycardia, SVT, VT. Increases myocardial O₂ demand. 2nd or 3rd line for septic shock (SSC 2021: add after norepinephrine ± vasopressin). 1st line for anaphylaxis (0.3-0.5 mg IM) and cardiac arrest. May cause splanchnic vasoconstriction, lactic acidosis, and hyperglycemia.
Norepinephrine 2-5 mcg/min (0.01-0.03 mcg/kg/min) 0.5-1 mcg/kg/min (some sources up to 3.3 mcg/kg/min)[4] Mild β₁ direct effect (+inotropy) Strong α₁ and α₂ vasoconstriction; β₁ effect Less arrhythmogenic than dopamine[3] 1st line for septic shock (SSC 2021)[1]. Increases MAP primarily via vasoconstriction. Increases coronary perfusion pressure. Minimal β₂ effect.
Milrinone 50 mcg/kg IV over 10 min (loading dose often omitted in acute illness due to hypotension risk) 0.375-0.75 mcg/kg/min PDE-3 inhibitor → ↑intracellular cAMP → ↑Ca²⁺ influx → +inotropy Arteriolar and venous vasodilator (reduces preload AND afterload) Less arrhythmogenic than dobutamine Inodilator — useful in decompensated HF with elevated afterload, RV failure, or pulmonary hypertension. Causes hypotension — not a vasopressor; use with a vasopressor if MAP is low. Renally cleared — dose-reduce in CKD.
Phenylephrine 100-180 mcg/min, then 40-60 mcg/min 0.4-9.1 mcg/kg/min No direct cardiac effect Pure α₁ agonist → vasoconstriction May cause reflex bradycardia Short duration of action (5-20 min IV). Use in septic shock only if: NE causes arrhythmias, cardiac output is high with persistent hypotension, or as salvage when NE + vasopressin have failed.[1]
Vasopressin 0.03 U/min (fixed dose) 0.04 U/min No direct inotropic or chronotropic effect; possible reflex bradycardia V₁ receptor agonist → vascular smooth muscle constriction Minimal 2nd line in septic shock — add to NE rather than escalating NE (SSC 2021 suggests adding before epinephrine)[1]. Fixed dose — generally not titrated. May reduce the risk of atrial fibrillation vs. catecholamine-only regimens.[5] Avoid dose >0.04 U/min → risk of cardiac and mesenteric ischemia.
Methylene blue[6] IV bolus 1-2 mg/kg over 15 min 1-2 mg/kg/hour (limited data on max duration) Possible increased inotropy; improves cardiac ATP utilization Inhibits NO-mediated peripheral vasodilation → increases SVR Minimal reported Salvage therapy for refractory vasodilatory shock unresponsive to catecholamines. Contraindicated in G6PD deficiency (hemolytic anemia), ARDS, severe pulmonary hypertension. Interferes with pulse oximetry readings (falsely low SpO₂). Avoid with serotonergic drugs (risk of serotonin syndrome).
Angiotensin II (Giapreza) 20 ng/kg/min 40-80 ng/kg/min (max 200 ng/kg/min per label) No direct cardiac effect AT₁ receptor agonist → potent arteriolar vasoconstriction; also stimulates aldosterone secretion Minimal Salvage therapy for refractory vasodilatory shock (ATHOS-3 trial)[7]. May be particularly useful in patients on ACEi/ARB or with high renin states. Monitor for thrombosis (increased risk reported).
