[Antidotal effects of 2,3-dimercaptopropane-1-sulfonate sodium (DMPS) and combined with diazepam on acute poisoning caused by sodium ammonium dimethyl-2-propano-1,3-dithiosulfate monohydrate (SCD)].

In mice, DMPS (250 mg/kg, i.v.) combined with diazepam (1.25 mg/kg, i.p.) could increase LD50 of p. o. SCD 5.3 times. DMPS (62.5 mg/kg, i.v.) antagonized completely the respiratory depression and neuromuscular blockade caused by SCD(7.5 mg/kg, i.v.) in rabbits. SCD (15 mg/kg, i.v.) caused tremor, tonic convulsion and the abnormal paroxysmal discharges in EEG in rabbits. DMPS (0.5 mg/kg, i.c.v) could not eliminate the abnormal paroxysmal discharges in EEG of rabbits. DMPS (62.5 mg/kg, i.v.) combined with diazepam (5 mg/kg, i.v.) completely and rapidly antagonize these toxic symptoms and the abnormal changes in EEG.

Studies on the calcium antagonistic action of tetrandrine: X VI. Hemodynamic effects of tetrandrine on conscious rats.

Hemodynamic study of tetrandrine (Tet) in conscious rats showed that 15 mg/kg i.v. lowered BP, LVSP, +/- dp/dtmax, and (dP/dt)P-1. The degree of diminutions was nearly equal to that of BP during the initial period, while the LVEDP was elevated. But all these parameters (except -dp/dtmax) recovered gradually and earlier than BP, and LVEDP decreased to a level slightly lower than that of control. These results indicate that the hypotensive action of Tet is mainly due to its inhibition of cardiac contractility at the early period, but due to vasodilatation in the later stage. The HR was slowed down abruptly followed by a reflex acceleration, and than a gradual but sustained decrease in HR supervened with i.v. Tet. When large dose (40 mg/kg) of Tet i.v. caused a cardiac standstill with the R wave of ECG persisting for a few minutes, it means that an excitation-contraction decoupling occurred as that found on isolated myocardial preparation treated with verapamil and Tet.
