Description
Curator's Comment: Description was created based on several sources, including http://www.druginfosys.com/drug.aspx?drugcode=569&type=1 | https://www.drugs.com/dosage/phenylpropanolamine.html | https://www.petcarerx.com/medication-guides/about-the-proin-dosage-for-urinary-incontinence/1086?page=all | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2014/02/20/2014-03596/phenylpropanolamine-withdrawal-of-approval-of-13-new-drug-applications-and-7-abbreviated-new-drug

Phenylpropanolamine belongs to the sympathomimetic amine class of drugs and is structurally related to ephedrine. The effects of phenylpropanolamine are largely the result of alpha-adrenergic agonist activity resulting from both direct stimulation of adrenergic receptors and release of neuronal norepinephrine. Phenylpropanolamine is mainly used as a nasal decongestant. Phenylpropanolamine is also used as anorexiant in obesity and to treat urinary incontinence in veteranary. Phenylpropanolamine containing products has been withdrawn by FDA due to the association of phenylpropanolamine use with increased risk of hemorrhagic stroke.
