text: it would still cause hypertension.... i was just wondering if this is the answer...if theres too much adrenaline in blood it causes the fight flight fright responses...then it would direct the blood to the muscles of the legs so it would help us to run faster (to get out of there)and causes other things like increase heart rate and ilke dilation of pupils (to see better) and etc.... so in an overdose of L-dopa you get too much vasodilation in the muscles and too much vessel constriction in the gut and stuff...and the blood pools away in the muscle causing hypotension inside the organs?
text: Since dopamine is an adrenergic, you might expect it to cause hypertension, but it is a selective-beta adrenergic receptor agonist with no significant alpha action.
