Intravenous regional sympathetic blockade with guanethidine (octadine) or reserpine (a special anesthesia technique that also has a therapeutic effect). (medprep.info)
Blockade1
The effect of guanethidine-induced sympathetic blockade on the sleep deprivation syndrome. (uchicago.edu)
Sympathetic1
Guanethidine is transported across the sympathetic nerve membrane by the same mechanism that transports norepinephrine itself (NET, uptake 1), and uptake is essential for the drug's action. (wikipedia.org)
Intravenous1
Intravenous nerve block (Bier block) using guanethidine has been used to treat chronic pain caused by complex regional pain syndrome. (wikipedia.org)
Descriptor1
Guanethidine" is a descriptor in the National Library of Medicine's controlled vocabulary thesaurus, MeSH (Medical Subject Headings) . (uchicago.edu)
Uptake1
Guanethidine is transported by uptake 1 into the presynaptic terminal transported by norepinephrine transporter (NET). (wikipedia.org)
Hypertension2
Guanethidine was once a mainstay for hypertension resistant to other agents, and was often used safely during pregnancy, but it is no longer used in the US due to lack of availability. (wikipedia.org)
Patients with malignant hypertension and those already receiving guanethidine (see WARNINGS ) should be hospitalized when minoxidil is first administered so that they can be monitored to avoid too rapid, or large orthostatic, decreases in blood pressure. (nih.gov)
Freis2
In this article, Freis provided a review and assessment of a new antihypertensive drug, guanethidine. (nih.gov)
In this article, Freis and Frohlich reported that one of these agents, guanethidine, exhibited a potent, orthostatic, antihypertensive effect similar to other ganglionic-blocking agents. (nih.gov)
