Randomized Controlled Trial Clinical Trial[Infectious toxic hypotension--effect and dosage of midodrine (author's transl)].
A new alpha-sympathicomimetic drug with peroral effect is midodrine. The effective oral dosage in infancy and childhood is 0.06 mg/kg/dosi. ⋯ The results give an increase in blood pressure and a decrease in heart frequency, statistically proved, on the first day of treatment. Therefore it seems that midodrine is qualified for the treatment of hypotension in infectious diseases.
