I was trying to spell Adrenaline right the other day and so I thought I would share the info that came up on it

 

begin quote from:

AI Overview

Adrenaline (also known as epinephrine) is a critical hormone and neurotransmitter produced mainly by the adrenal glands, which sit on top of the kidneys. 

What It Does (Fight-or-Flight Response)

Adrenaline drives your body's acute stress or fight-or-flight response when you face danger, fear, excitement, or high physical stress. 

Heart and Circulation: Increases heart rate and blood pressure, pumping more blood to your muscles and heart. 
Lungs: Relaxes airway muscles to help you breathe deeper and faster. 
Energy: Breaks down stored glycogen into glucose (sugar) for quick energy. 
Senses:
Dilates pupils to let in more light and sharpens alertness.
 

Learn more about the body's natural response through the Cleveland Clinic Adrenaline Guide. 

Symptoms of an Adrenaline Rush

When adrenaline floods your bloodstream quickly, you may experience:

A racing or pounding heart
Shaking or internal trembling
Sweating or feeling hot/flushed
Rapid breathing and lightheadedness
A sharp sense of anxiety or being overly "wired" 

Medical Uses

As a pharmaceutical drug, epinephrine is a life-saving first-line treatment. It is most commonly used for: 

Severe allergic reactions (Anaphylaxis): To open airways and restore blood pressure.
Cardiac arrest: To help restart or support heart function.
Severe asthma attacks: To relax constricted airways. 

If you'd like, let me know:

• Are you asking out of general curiosity, or handling a specific symptom (like anxiety or a racing heart)?
• Do you need information on emergency uses or medication?

I can give you more targeted details.
