title: [Pharmacology of iotroxic acid, a new intravenous cholangiographic agent. II. Experimental animal study of side effects].
abstract: The general, neural and cardiovascular tolerance of iotroxic acid (Biliscopin) and its deleterious effect on membranes were investigated in comparison with iodipamic- (Biligrafin), ioglycamic- (Biligram, Bilivistan) und iodoxamic acids in different experimental models. Tolerance (DL50) of iotroxic acid after i.v. injection in the rat proved to be significantly better than that of all the reference substances. The difference was most apparent in animals which had previously been given histamine. Neural tolerance was found to be best after iotroxic acid and iodipamic acid and poorest after iodoxamic acid. In in vitro investigations the erythrocyte membranes were far less damaged by iodoxamic acid and iotroxic acid than by iodipamic acid. Iotroxic acid was also particularly well tolerated after intracisternal injection and after injection into the carotid artery of the rat. The effect of iotroxic acid on the cardiovascular system of the cat was distinctly weaker than that of ioglycamic acid and, when given in high doses, evidently also weaker than that after administration of iodoxamic acid. The excellent general tolerance of iotroxic acid can be explained by the fact that its deleterious effect on membranes is less than that of iodipamic acid and that its neurotoxicity is distinctly lower than that of iodoxamic acid.
