The Effect of Isordil and Cyclospasmol on Vascular Spasm Induced in the Basilar Artery of the Cat

Open full text 10 citations

Abstract

Vasospasm of the basilar artery of the cat was induced by subarachnoid bleeding and was observed by a transoral approach to the vessel. Intravenous Isordil (2 to 4 mg/kg) given following vasospasm produced vasodilatation with minimal arterial hypotension. Cyclospasmol, administered intravenously after vasospasm or orally prior to vasospasm, was ineffective in relieving or preventing basilar artery spasm.
