Effects of haloperidol on physiological variables
| Treatment | Number of Rats | Mean Arterial Blood Pressure | Arterial Plasma Glucose Concentration | Arterial pCO2 | Arterial pO2 | Arterial pH |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| mm Hg | mg/dl | mm Hg | ||||
| Control (saline) | 6 | 116 ± 2 | 129 ± 5 | 37 ± 1 | 87 ± 2 | 7.45 ± 0.01 |
| Haloperidol (0.1 mg/kg) | 6 | 117 ± 3 | 144 ± 12 | 36 ± 1 | 89 ± 1 | 7.45 ± 0.01 |
| Control (saline) | 6 | 122 ± 2 | 164 ± 7 | 39 ± 1 | 94 ± 2 | 7.46 ± 0.01 |
| Haloperidol (1.0 mg/kg) | 6 | 119 ± 2 | 162 ± 16 | 37 ± 1 | 99 ± 1 | 7.45 ± 0.01 |
The values are the means ± S.E. measured immediately before the determination of cerebral blood flow in the number of animals indicated. None of these physiological variables was statistically significantly affected by the haloperidol treatments.
