Effect of cordiamine and corasol on the tonus of the lymphatic vessels]

The action of cordiamine and pentylene tetrazole upon the tonicity of the thoracic and jugular lymph trunks and the arterial pressure was studied in acute experiments on dogs by employing perfusion with Lock's solution under constant pressure. It is shown that pentylene tetrazole forces down, as a rule, the lymph vessels tone, while cordiamine primarily brings it up.
