title: [Modification of toxicity of the calcium antagonist verapamil by depletion of catecholamines (author's transl)].
abstract: The acute toxicity of verapamil in mice was nearly doubled by a partial depletion of catecholamines with reserpine 2 mg/kg s.c. 40 and 24 h prior to the experiments. These experiments are in favour of the view that a regulatory effect of the sympathetic nervous systme plays an important role in the treatment with organic calcium antagonists.
