Hypertensive emergency:
Note: In general, reduce mean arterial blood pressure gradually by ~10% to 20% over the first hour, then by an additional 5% to 15% over the next 23 hours. Invasive blood pressure monitoring is recommended for appropriate dose titration (ACC/AHA [Whelton 2018]; Elliot 2022).
Continuous IV infusion: Initial: 0.1 mcg/kg/minute; may increase in increments of 0.05 to 0.1 mcg/kg/minute every 15 minutes until target blood pressure is reached; usual initial dosing range: 0.01 to 0.3 mcg/kg/minute; maximum dose: 1.6 mcg/kg/minute; limit use to 48 hours (Panacek 1995; Tumlin 2000; manufacturer’s labeling).
There are no dosage adjustments provided in the manufacturer’s labeling; the effects of hemodialysis have not been evaluated.
There are no dosage adjustments provided in the manufacturer’s labeling.
Refer to adult dosing.
(For additional information see "Fenoldopam: Pediatric drug information")
Severe hypertension: Infants, Children, and Adolescents: IV: Continuous IV infusion: Initial: 0.2 mcg/kg/minute; may be increased every 20 to 30 minutes to 0.3 to 0.5 mcg/kg/minute; maximum dose: 0.8 mcg/kg/minute (higher doses have been shown to worsen tachycardia without any additional blood pressure benefits) (AAP [Flynn 2017]).
All patients: There are no dosage adjustments provided in the manufacturer’s labeling; the effects of hemodialysis have not been evaluated.
There are no dosage adjustments provided in the manufacturer’s labeling.

Concerns related to adverse effects:
• Hypokalemia: Hypokalemia has been observed within 6 hours of fenoldopam infusion; monitor potassium concentrations appropriately.
• Tachycardia: Dose-related tachycardia can occur, especially at infusion rates >0.1 mcg/kg/minute (adults) and >0.8 mcg/kg/minute (pediatric). Doses lower than 0.1 mcg/kg/minute and slow up-titration is associated with less reflex tachycardia.
Disease-related concerns:
• Angina: Use with extreme caution in patients with obstructive coronary disease or ongoing angina pectoris; can increase myocardial oxygen demand due to tachycardia leading to angina pectoris.
• Glaucoma: Dose-dependent increase in intraocular pressure (IOP) has been reported in patients with glaucoma or intraocular hypertension; upon discontinuation, IOP returned to baseline within 2 hours.
Dosage form specific issues:
• Propylene glycol: Some dosage forms may contain propylene glycol; large amounts are potentially toxic and have been associated hyperosmolality, lactic acidosis, seizures, and respiratory depression; use caution (AAP 1997; Zar 2007).
• Sulfites: Contains sulfites; may cause allergic-type reactions, including anaphylactic symptoms and life-threatening or less severe asthmatic episodes, in susceptible individuals. Sulfite sensitivity is seen more frequently in asthmatic than in nonasthmatic people.
A dose related tachycardia can occur, especially at infusion rates >0.1 mcg/kg/minute; in pediatric patients at doses >0.8 mcg/kg/minute, tachycardia has been shown to persist for at least 4 hours. Close monitoring of blood pressure is necessary; hypotension can occur.
Some dosage forms may contain propylene glycol; in neonates large amounts of propylene glycol delivered orally, intravenously (eg, >3,000 mg/day), or topically have been associated with potentially fatal toxicities which can include metabolic acidosis, seizures, renal failure, and CNS depression; toxicities have also been reported in children and adults including hyperosmolality, lactic acidosis, seizures, and respiratory depression; use caution (AAP, 1997; Shehab, 2009).

Adverse events were not observed in animal reproduction studies. Fenoldopam was administered orally to rats and rabbits during the period of organogenesis; although maternal toxicity occurred at the highest dose, teratogenic or fetotoxic effects were not observed.
Severe maternal hypertension is associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes, including maternal stroke, pulmonary edema, myocardial ischemia, or maternal/fetal death.
It is not known if fenoldopam is present in breast milk.
Due to the potential for serious adverse reactions in the breastfed infant, breastfeeding is not recommended by the manufacturer.
