What is phentolamine mesylate (and what is it used for)?
Phentolamine mesylate is a medication form of phentolamine, a non-selective alpha-adrenergic blocker (it blocks alpha receptors). Clinically, it is used for conditions where reversing or blocking alpha-adrenergic effects is helpful, such as certain cases of ischemia/extravasation management in medical practice and other off-label or specialty uses depending on country and clinical protocols.
The specific reference you provided (“NCT05512345”) appears to point to a clinical trial record, which would contain the exact medical use being studied in that study.
What does NCT05512345 refer to?
“NCT05512345” is the identifier format used by ClinicalTrials.gov. To answer precisely what phentolamine mesylate is being studied for in that trial (the condition, patient population, design, dosing, and endpoints), I would need the trial’s published details or a link/text from the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05512345.
What typically appears in a trial record like NCT05512345?
A ClinicalTrials.gov listing for a drug typically includes:
- the condition being studied,
- inclusion/exclusion criteria,
- dosing regimen and route,
- primary outcome measures,
- trial status (recruiting/completed/terminated),
- locations and sponsor.
Why patients and clinicians search for this combination
People often search a “drug name + NCT number” when they want:
- the exact indication being tested (not just general uses),
- whether the trial is recruiting,
- how the drug is dosed in that specific protocol,
- whether results are available.
Can you share the ClinicalTrials.gov link or the trial title?
If you paste the ClinicalTrials.gov URL for NCT05512345 (or the trial title/brief description), I can summarize:
- what phentolamine mesylate is being tested for in that trial,
- key inclusion criteria and endpoints,
- current status and any posted results.
