What is Hemangeol
Propranolol
The Generic name of this drug
Treatment Summary
Propranolol is a medication used to treat high blood pressure and other conditions. It is a mixture of two different chemical compounds, with one of them being about 100 times more powerful in binding to beta adrenergic receptors. Propranolol was first approved by the FDA in 1967.

Effectiveness
How Hemangeol Affects Patients
Propranolol is a drug used to treat high blood pressure. It lasts for a long time, so it is usually taken once or twice per day, depending on the patient's needs. If the patient suddenly stops taking propranolol, they may experience chest pain and heart attacks.
How Hemangeol works in the body
Propranolol works by blocking the effect of beta-adrenergic receptors. This causes the blood vessels to constrict, reduces the growth of new blood vessels, and encourages the death of endothelial cells. It also reduces the activity of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system.
When to interrupt dosage
The measure of Hemangeol is contingent upon the diagnosed ailment, such as Catecholamines, Hypertensive disease and Hemangiomas. The quantity of dosage is contingent upon the mode of delivery (e.g. Solution - Oral or Capsule, extended release - Oral) featured in the table below.

Propranolol may interact with Pulse Frequency
There are 20 known major drug interactions with Hemangeol.
Common Hemangeol Drug Interactions
Drug Name
Risk Level
Description
4-Bromo-2,5-dimethoxyphenethylamine
Major
The therapeutic efficacy of 4-Bromo-2,5-dimethoxyphenethylamine can be decreased when used in combination with Propranolol.
4-Methoxyamphetamine
Major
The therapeutic efficacy of 4-Methoxyamphetamine can be decreased when used in combination with Propranolol.
Abediterol
Major
Propranolol may decrease the bronchodilatory activities of Abediterol.
Adrafinil
Major
The therapeutic efficacy of Adrafinil can be decreased when used in combination with Propranolol.
Agrostis gigantea pollen
Major
The risk of a hypersensitivity reaction to Agrostis gigantea pollen is increased when it is combined with Propranolol.
Hemangeol Toxicity & Overdose Risk
Symptoms of propranolol overdose include low blood pressure, seizures due to low blood sugar, restlessness, and lack of sleep. Asthma sufferers may experience difficulty breathing. If someone overdoses on propranolol, monitor their vital signs, mental status, and blood sugar. Treat low blood pressure with fluids, slow heart rate with atropine and isoproterenol or aminophylline for difficulty breathing. If fluids don't help, try giving glucagon intravenously, followed by catecholamines. Dialysis will not help since propranolol binds to proteins in the blood.

Is HEMANGEOL a beta blocker?
"Hemangeol belongs to a class of drugs that help to regulate heart rate and treat conditions like angina and migraines."
Answered by AI
Is Hemangeol the same as propranolol?
"The medicine propranolol is not able to be removed by dialysis. HEMANGEOL is an oral solution of propranolol that does not contain alcohol, parabens, or sugar. Each mL of HEMANGEOL contains 4.28 mg of propranolol hydrochloride, USP equivalent to 3.75 mg of propranolol."
Answered by AI
How long does it take for Hemangeol to work?
"8 out of 10 babies in this study improved after 5 weeks of using HEMANGEOL with 60% of them seeing complete or nearly complete resolution of their hemangiomas by 6 months."
Answered by AI
What is Hemangeol used for?
"HEMANGEOL is a medication that is used to treat a type of birthmark called an infantile hemangioma. This condition requires treatment with a medication that enters the bloodstream and circulates throughout the body."
