Used for cardiopulmonary resuscitation in conjunction (may be a combination of epinephrine and something else)? Thank you.

Epinephrine is sometimes used, since it can act as a stimulant, which may boost a failing heart rate. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, nervousness, insomnia, and anorexia.

As to EpiCal, are you sure that is the name of it? I haven't been able to find anything under that name.
