Today's episode we review two commonly used ACLS medications, epinephrine and dopamine. Epinephrine may be used to prevent a cardiac arrest in severe anaphylaxis or unstable bradycardia, during a cardiac arrest, and post arrest to maintain blood pressure. Epinephrine's doses and routs of administration. Dopamine is used to treat unstable bradycardia while awaiting TCP and post arrest to maintain a BP of at least 90 systolic. Dopamine's actions are dose dependent. Dopamine should be titrated up slowly and must not exceed 20 mcg/kg/min.
