Pseudoephedrine is a sympathomimetic medication which is used as a nasal decongestant to treat nasal congestion. It also has many off-label uses, such as treatment of hypotension. At higher doses, pseudoephedrine acts as a psychostimulant, appetite suppressant, and performance-enhancing drug; as a result, non-medicinal use of pseudoephedrine is common, and it is often considered an abused drug. The medication is administered orally. Pseudoephedrine is sold under many brand names, Sudafed being among the most common.
