Ephedrine is a decongestant and bronchodilator, used to treat bronchospasms caused due to asthma. The medicine reduces the swelling and constricts the blood vessels in the nasal passages which widens the lung airways and allows the patient to breathe easily. Due to the medicine’s central nervous system stimulatory effects, ephedrine is also used extensively during spinal anesthesia in order to prevent intra-operative hypotension. The medicine is available in the form of tablets, capsules and injections.
