Its secretion is stimulated by the sympathetic nervous system under conditions of stress. Adrenaline stimulates blood flow to skeletal muscles and increases blood glucose levels.

In adults, current recommendations are for intravenous adrenaline 1 mg (10-15 microgram/kg) to be given immediately and repeated every 3-5 minutes. However, both the American Heart Association and the European Resuscitation Council recognise the theoretical advantages of adrenaline in higher doses (ie 100 microgram/kg) if the initial lower dose fails. In adults, this represents 5-10 mg every 5 minutes.
