    Isoprenaline is a catecholamine that acts solely on beta receptors. It increases all cardiac properties and dilates both coronary and skeletal blood vessels when administered intravenously or by inhalation. Side effects include tachycardia, palpitations, and arrhythmia. It can be used to treat heart block and bronchial asthma but is contraindicated in patients with arrhythmias or those receiving general anesthesia due to the risk of ventricular fibrillation.
