<!--Mechanism of Action-->

'''Phentolamine''' (Regitine) is a reversible<ref name="isbn0-7817-4266-8">{{cite book |author=Jewell, John R.; Longworth, David L.; Stoller, James K.; Casey, David |title=The Cleveland Clinic internal medicine case reviews |publisher=Lippincott Williams & Wilkins |location=Hagerstown, MD |year=2003 |isbn=0-7817-4266-8 |oclc= |doi= |accessdate= |page=32}}</ref> nonselective alpha-[[adrenergic antagonist]].<ref>{{MeshName|Phentolamine}}</ref>
<!--Structure-->


==Mechanism==
|structure=
Its primary action is [[vasodilation]] due to α<sub>1</sub> blockade.<ref>Brock G. Oral phentolamine (Vasomax). ''Drugs Today (Barcelona)''. 2000 Feb-Mar;36(2-3):121-4.</ref>


It also can lead to reflex [[tachycardia]] because of [[hypotension]] and α<sub>2</sub> inhibition, which increases sympathetic tone.<ref name=pharmnemonics>{{Cite book | author=Shen, Howard | title=Illustrated Pharmacology Memory Cards: PharMnemonics | year=2008 | publisher=Minireview | isbn=1-59541-101-1 | page=14}}</ref>
*


==Uses==
: [[File:{{PAGENAME}}01.png|thumb|none|600px|This image is provided by the National Library of Medicine.]]
The primary application for phentolamine is for the control of [[hypertensive emergency|hypertensive emergencies]], most notably due to [[pheochromocytoma]]. <ref>Tuncel M, Ram VC. Hypertensive emergencies. Etiology and management. ''American Journal of Cardiovascular Drugs''. 2003;3(1):21-31.</ref>


It also has usefulness in  the treatment of [[cocaine]]-induced cardiovascular complications, where one would generally avoid [[Beta-blocker]]s (e.g. [[metoprolol]]), as they can cause unopposed alpha-adrenergic mediated [[Coronary vasospasm|coronary vasoconstriction]], worsening myocardial ischemia and hypertension. It is important to note that phentolamine is not a first-line agent for this indication. Phentolamine should only be given to patients who do not fully respond to [[benzodiazepines]], [[nitroglycerin]], and [[calcium channel blockers]]. <ref>Hollander JE, Henry TD. Evaluation and management of the patient who has cocaine-associated chest pain. ''Cardiology Clinics''. 2006 Feb;24(1):103-14.</ref><ref>Chan GM, Sharma R, Price D, Hoffman RS, Nelson LS. Phentolamine Therapy for Cocaine-Association Acute Coronary Syndrome (CAACS). ''Journal of Medical Toxicology''. 2006 Sep;2(3):108-11.</ref>  
<!--Pharmacodynamics-->


When given by injection it causes blood vessels to expand, thereby increasing blood flow. When injected into the penis (intracavernosal), it increases blood flow to the penis, which results in an erection.<ref>Bella AJ, Brock GB. Intracavernous pharmacotherapy for erectile dysfunction. ''Endocrine''. 2004 Mar-Apr;23(2-3):149-55.</ref>
|PD=


It may be stored in [[crash cart]]s to counteract severe peripheral vasoconstriction secondary to [[extravasation]] of peripherally placed [[vasopressor]] infusions, typically of [[norepinephrine]]. [[Epinephrine]] infusions are less vasoconstrictive than norepinephrine as they primarily stimulate beta receptor more than alpha receptors, but the effect remains dose dependent.

Phentolamine also has diagnostic and therapeutic roles in [[complex regional pain syndrome]] (reflex sympathetic dystrophy).<ref>Rowbotham MC. Pharmacologic management of complex regional pain syndrome. ''Clinical Journal of Pain''. 2006 Jun;22(5):425-9.</ref>
<!--Pharmacokinetics-->


Phentolamine has recently been introduced in the dental field as a local anesthetic reversal agent.  Distributed by Septodont, [[OraVerse]] is a Phentolamine Mesylate injection designed to reverse the local vasoconstrictor properties used in many local anesthetics to prolong anesthesia.<ref>http://www.novalar.com/oraverse-dental-specialty-pharmaceutical</ref>  OraVerse has been shown to accelerate the reversal of the lingering soft-tissue numbness associated with the widely used anesthetic-vasoconstrictor combinations.<ref>Malamed S.
