Abstract
An investigation has been made on the effect of physostigmine on the output of catecholamines from the adrenal gland of the rat. Physostigmine (20 mcg. i.v.) causes three- to fourfold increase in the catecholamines output from the adrenal gland of the rat. This effect is mediated centrally as no increase was seen in the pithed animals. It is concluded that this peripheral release of catecholamines does not play any significant role in the hypertensive response of physostigmine in the rat.
