phentolamine and Muscle Relaxation

phentolamine has been researched along with Muscle Relaxation in 90 studies

Phentolamine: A nonselective alpha-adrenergic antagonist. It is used in the treatment of hypertension and hypertensive emergencies, pheochromocytoma, vasospasm of RAYNAUD DISEASE and frostbite, clonidine withdrawal syndrome, impotence, and peripheral vascular disease.
phentolamine : A substituted aniline that is 3-aminophenol in which the hydrogens of the amino group are replaced by 4-methylphenyl and 4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazol-2-ylmethyl groups respectively. An alpha-adrenergic antagonist, it is used for the treatment of hypertension.

Muscle Relaxation: That phase of a muscle twitch during which a muscle returns to a resting position.

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"These results suggest potentially effective combined therapies of sildenafil and intraurethral or intracavernosal prostaglandin-E1, intracavernosal forskolin or VIP, or oral phentolamine for patients with erectile dysfunction who have no success after monotherapy with these agents."3.71Synergistic effects of sildenafil on relaxation of rabbit and rat cavernosal smooth muscles when combined with various vasoactive agents. ( Jun, IO; Kim, SC; Lee, MY; Oh, MM; Seo, KK, 2001)
"In vitro and in vivo studies were performed to determine the potential use of tamsulosin (TAM) versus phentolamine (PHE) for intracavernosal injection (ICI) therapy when mixed with papaverine (PAP) and/or prostagladin E1 (PGE1) or with vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP) for the treatment of erectile dysfunction."3.70Comparison of the synergistic effects of tamsulosin versus phentolamine on penile erection: in vitro and in vivo studies. ( Kim, SC; Lee, MY; Lee, SK; Seo, KK; Song, ES, 1999)

( Hidaka, H; Inagaki, M; Ishikawa, T; Watanabe, M, 1985)
" Isolated rings (circular preparations) obtained from rat thoracic aortae responded to increasing concentrations of NE with dose-dependent tonic enhancement, not significantly affected by the presence of indomethacin (10(-6)M); whereas, preincubation with phentolamine (10(-6)M), yohimbine (10(-7)M) or prazosin (10(-8)M), shifted significantly to the right points of the positive inotropic dose-response curve for NE."1.27Possible prostacyclin involvement on disparate tonic responses to "in vitro" norepinephrine in circular and in longitudinal preparations from rat thoracic aorta. ( Chaud, M; Franchi, AM; Gimeno, AL; Gimeno, MA, 1987)

( Katovich, MJ; Soltis, EE, 1985)
