Isoprenaline (also known as isoproterenol) is a synthetic non-selective beta-adrenergic agonist. It was used primarily as a bronchodilator and cardiac stimulant for the treatment of bradycardia (slow heart rate), heart block, and sometimes for asthma. Its use today is limited due to the availability of more selective agents and safety considerations.
