Description

Metaraminol (also known as metaradrine), a stereoisomer of meta-hydroxynorephedrine (3,β-dihydroxyamphetamine), is a potent sympathomimetic amine used in the prevention and treatment of hypotension, particularly as a complication of anesthesia. It is an α1-adrenergic receptor agonist with some β effect. Metaraminol is also used in the treatment of priapism. Although not approved for this use, it appears to be effective.
