    Notes: Summary The endocrine effects of a relatively potent dopaminergic agent, dihydroergokryptine, have been studied in normal subjects, and in hyperprolactinaemic and acromegalic patients. A single 6 mg oral dose of the drug caused a marked, long lasting fall in prolactin (PRL) plasma levels in healthy subjects, in hyperprolactinaemic patients and in normoprolactinaemic acromegalics. Growth hormone (GH) levels decreased in l-DOPA — responder, acromegalic patients, but dihydroergokryptine did not affect GH levels in normal volunteers or in l-DOPA non — responder, acromegalic patients. The PRL-and GH- lowering activity of 6 mg dihydroergokriptine was significantly greater than that of 6 mg dihydroergocristine, and was similar to that of an oral dose of 500 mg l-DOPA.

    Notes: Summary The effect β-adrenoceptor blockade on the pressor response to tyramine has been investigated in 6 healthy volunteers, each submitted to an i.v. tyramine pressor test before and after 7 days of propranolol 40 mg b.d. or indenolol 60 mg o.d. Tyramine was given as i.v. boluses of 1–6 mg, alternating with saline, in a randomized, single blind fashion. Prior to treatment tyramine caused a temporary, dose-dependent increase in systolic and diastolic blood pressure, whilst the heart rate remained unaffected. Both propranolol and indenolol reduced the pressor response to tyramine, as shown by a significant increase in ED15, i.e. the dose of tyramine required to increase systolic blood pressure by 15%.

    Notes: Summary The haemodynamic effect of indenolol, a β-adrenoceptor blocker with intrinsic sympathomimetic activity (ISA) in animals, has been evaluated in a double-blind cross-over randomized trial after acute (3 days) and long-term treatment (28 days), in 12 hypertensive patients in comparison with that of propranolol. Patients were evaluated at rest and during isometric exercise (hand grip). The overall acute effect of both β-adrenoceptor blocking drugs was to decrease mean blood pressure, heart rate and cardiac output, while total peripheral resistance increased. In the long-term studies the haemodynamic effect of propranolol was still characterized by cardiodepression and unchanged peripheral resistance. Patients on the long-term treatment with indenolol showed normal cardiac output and reduced total peripheral resistance. The data are compatible with a relatively strong ISA of indenolol, which would be responsible for the haemodynamic pattern observed during chronic treatment.
