And if you can tell me how they work.

No, oxygen is not a vasopressor. Oxygen is a gas that is essential for life and is often used to support respiration in various medical conditions by increasing the levels of oxygen in the blood, but it does not have direct vasoconstrictive effects like vasopressors do.
Yes, vasopressor effect due to increase in catecholamines.
Lack of L-dopa is the major problem. Therefore, symptoms improve with the use of the centrally-acting agent, levodopa (L-dopa), and the peripherally-acting agent, carbidopa.
The opposite of dopamine is serotonin.

They inhibit the expression of dopamine.
Vasopressor therapy is a medical strategy that aims to improve blood pressure and other hemodynamic parameters by utilising various drugs that act to promote the constriction of various vascular pathways.
