TY - JOUR T1 - SIMILARITY OF ACUTE HEMODYNAMIC RESPONSE TO l-EPINEPHRINE AND l-ARTERENOL JF - Journal of Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics JO - J Pharmacol Exp Ther SP - 107 LP - 115 VL - 109 IS - 2 AU - Mary E.

It was observed that blood flow patterns following the injection of either drug were influenced by the vasomotor status of the vessel bed prior to injection. The distortion of the flow pattern, more apparent than real, could be easily misinterpreted as indicating a difference in action between l-epinephrine and l-arterenol. ER -
