About DOBUTRUST 250MG INJECTION

DOBUTRUST 250MG INJECTION belongs to a class of medicines called vasopressors used to treat patients with low cardiac output, decompensated heart failure (DHF), and Myocardial infarction (MI). Myocardial infarction, also known as a heart attack, could occur due to the lack of blood and oxygen supply to the heart. Cardiac decompensation is an abnormal condition in which the heart is no longer able to maintain efficient circulation.  

DOBUTRUST 250MG INJECTION contains Dobutamine which works by increasing blood flow to the muscles and increasing the pumping efficiency of the heart.

Sometimes, DOBUTRUST 250MG INJECTION may cause common side effects such as headache, nausea, shortness of breath, chest pain, irregular heartbeat and pain at the site of injection. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist, please consult your doctor.

Disease/Condition Glossary

Myocardial infarction (MI)/Heart attack: It occurs when a blood clot blocks the blood flow to the heart. This blockage of arteries is often an accumulation of fat, cholesterol and other substances, which form plaque in the arteries that feed the heart (coronary arteries). Heart attack signs include chest pain, upper body pain, sweating, nausea, fatigue, and trouble breathing.

Decompensated heart failure (DHF): It is a condition in which the heart is no longer able to maintain efficient circulation. This leads to the sudden onset of symptoms of heart failure.
