reduces risk of toxic reaction, and helps control bleeding
Epinephrine is mainly a vasoconstrictor. It acts on alpha-adrenergic receptors in blood vessels, causing constriction and increasing blood pressure. However, it can also dilate blood vessels in certain tissues, like skeletal muscle, through its actions on beta-adrenergic receptors.
No, epinephrine is a vasoconstrictor. Commonly given to slow bleeding.
Epinephrine is a vasoconstrictor commonly added to local anesthetics. Its purpose is to increase the duration of the anesthetic by slowing down the systemic metabolism of the anesthetic. In other words, epinephrine decreases blood flow in the area of the injection, thereby keeping the anesthetic in the area longer and extending the anesthetic effect.
epinephrine and norpepinephrine
Indeed.
Epinephrine or adrenaline, and non epinephrine or noradrenaline.

Serotonin
Adrenaline can help to temporarily reduce bleeding by constricting blood vessels and increasing blood pressure. However, it is not a long-term solution for stopping bleeding and should not replace proper medical treatment for significant injuries.
Yes it can.
