description

No significant improvement in water diuresis was obtained by the s. c. injection of 500–1000 mU/kg of a synthetic oxytocin preparation (Syntocinon) in adrenalectomized, salt-maintained rats given 18 ml of water per rat by stomach tube. In these animals oxytocin had, on the other hand, a strong natriuretic and chloruretic effect.
