N-Methylhistamine is found to have one two-hundredth of the activity of histamine on the blood-pressure, and about one eightieth of the activity on the uterus.
Fränkel and Zeimer ascribe a histamine-like physiological action to tetrahydropyrido-3-4-iminazole("imidazolisopiperidin") and state that it is much more powerful than histamine. Contrary to this statement it has been found that the above compound has only one fifteen-hundredth of the activity of histamine on uterine muscle, and practically no action on the blood-pressure.
