Tolazoline, also known as priscoline, was used in treatment of persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn. But that prescription was discontinued. Priscoline given intravenously produces vasodilatation, primarily due to a direct effect on vascular smooth muscle, and cardiac stimulation; the blood pressure response depends on the relative contributions of the two effects. Priscoline usually reduces pulmonary arterial pressure and vascular resistance. The mechanisms of its therapeutic effects are not clear, but is known, that tolazoline is a non-selective competitive α-adrenergic receptor antagonist and it possesses histamine agonist activity.

Sample Use Guides

In Vivo Use Guide
An initial dose of 1 to 2 mg/kg, via scalp vein, followed by an infusion of 1 to 2 mg/kg per hour have usually resulted in significant increases in arterial oxygen. There is very little experience with infusions lasting beyond 36 to 48 hours. Response, if it occurs, can be expected within 30 minutes after the initial dose.
