SECTION 2: Hazards identification
GHS Classification Emergency Overview Isuprel (Isoproterenol Hydrochloride Injection, USP) is a solution containing isoproterenol, a sympatho-mimetic amine that acts almost exclusively on beta- adrenergic receptors. Therapeutically, isoproterenol is used to treat a variety of cardiac disorders, asthma, bronchospasm, carotid sinus hypersensitivity and shock. In the workplace, this material should be considered potentially irritating to the eyes and respiratory tract and a potent drug. Based on clinical use, possible target organs include the nervous system, respiratory system, cardiovascular system, and smooth muscle. U.S. OSHA GHS Classification
