Supports dopamine-mediated renal effects of oral fenoldopam; hypothesis-generating and should not yet change practice.
Does oral fenoldopam act as a renal vasodilator and increase urine volume and clearance via dopamine receptor stimulation in humans?
Oral fenoldopam is an active renal vasodilator in humans that increases urine volume and sodium excretion through the stimulation of renal dopamine receptors.
Stote et al. (1983) studied this question.
