    Notes: Summary Equimolar doses of iohexol and metrizamide (0.48 mmol/kg body weight = 185 mg I/kg), administered in solutions iso- and hyperosmolar to the CSF, were injected subarachnoidally into rabbits under pentobarbital anaesthesia. No excitative effects of iohexol were observed in the behaviour of the rabbits during a 3-h period immediately after the injection. Metrizamide caused significant, severe excitative effects, ranging from hyperexcitability to repeated generalized seizures. The frequency and severity of excitative effects were independent of the osmolality of the metrizamide solutions injected.

    Notes: Summary During a 14-day period, 45 of 78 rabbits were treated intravenously with chlorpromazine (5 mg kg-1 day-1). Metrizamide or iohexol was injected subarachnoidally and the neurotoxic effects of each substance on rabbit behaviour were evaluated for 3 h in both chlorpromazine-treated and non-treated rabbits. Chlorpromazine increased both the excitative and the depressive effects of metrizamide and the depressive effects of iohexol. No signs of excitation were observed in chlorpromazine-treated and non-treated rabbits after subarachnoid injections of iohexol. In spite of a free flow of clear fluid from the needle both before and after the intended subarachnoid injection, radiography disclosed that 26 of 67 suboccipital injections inadvertently resulted in a subdural deposition of the contrast medium. Contrast medium effects following subdural injection significantly differed from those following subarachnoid injection.
