Methoxamine hydrochloride is an agonist to alpha-1-adrenoceptors that causes prolonged peripheral vasoconstriction. This results in an elevation of blood pressure and a reduction in blood flow. Researchers may use this compound to explore its effects on various biological systems, including vascular function, smooth muscle contraction, and sympathetic nervous system activity.
