HIDE SMILES / InChI
Nitroprusside is a medication which is used to lower blood pressure. It is comprised of a ferrous ion complexed with five cyanide and one nitrosyl group. Upon intravenous infusion, nitroprusside interacts with oxyhemoglobin and dissociates, releasing cyanide and nitric oxide, which act as a powerful vasodilating agent. Sodium nitroprusside was approved by the FDA in 1974 and is indicated for the immediate reduction of blood pressure of adult and pediatric patients in hypertensive crises. Sodium Nitroprusside injection is also indicated for producing controlled hypotension in order to reduce bleeding during surgery, and for the treatment of acute congestive heart failure.

Approved Use

Sodium Nitroprusside injection is indicated for the immediate reduction of blood pressure of adult and pediatric patients in hypertensive crises. Concomitant longer-acting antihypertensive medication should be administered so that the duration of treatment with Sodium Nitroprusside can be minimized. Sodium Nitroprusside injection is also indicated for producing controlled hypotension in order to reduce bleeding during surgery. Sodium Nitroprusside injection is also indicated for the treatment of acute congestive heart failure.
