DRUG INTERACTIONS

DOPAMINE drug label information in our database does not contain a dedicated section on drug interactions. Please check subsections of WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS as well as other sources.

OVERDOSAGE

In case of accidental overdosage, as evidenced by excessive blood pressure elevation, reduce rate of administration or temporarily discontinue DOPAMINE until patient's condition stabilizes. Since the duration of action of DOPAMINE is quite short, no additional remedial measures are usually necessary. If these measures fail to stabilize the patient's condition, use of the short-acting alpha adrenergic blocking agent, phentolamine, should be considered.

CONTRAINDICATIONS

DOPAMINE should not be used in patients with pheochromocytoma.

DOPAMINE should not be administered in the presence of uncorrected tachyarrhythmias or ventricular fibrillation.
