Research Papers that Mention the Interaction

No change in hemodynamics was noted, but a significant increase in plasma norepinephrine and epinephrine levels (from 0.9 to 1.6 nmol/L and from 0.3 to 0.8 nmol/L, respectively; p < 0.05) was observed after meperidine administration.

There was a trend towards lower mean total consumption of pethidine in the adrenaline group (231.5 mg; SD 140.5 mg) compared with the plain group (289.5 mg; SD 139.5 mg; p = 0.071).

The median duration of analgesia was longer in the adrenaline group (196 min; IQR 123–286) … with the plain group (96 min; IQR 43–113; p = 0.002) and plasma concentrations of pethidine in the first 30 min after injection were lower in the adrenaline group (p = 0.003).

We conclude that coadministration of epinephrine or clonidine with meperidine enhances the duration and degree of spinal anesthesia and that adding clonidine prolongs the duration of postoperative analgesia. (
