MONITOR: Central nervous system (CNS) stimulants, particularly the amphetamines, can potentiate the adrenergic response to pressor agents. CNS stimulants often have peripheral sympathetic activity and can increase blood pressure and heart rate, thus they may have additive effects with pressor agents.

MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised if CNS stimulants are used with pressor agents. Pulse and blood pressure should be closely monitored.
