title: [Dimethindene maleate administered via intramuscular route in man: local and systemic tolerance].
abstract: Local and systemic tolerance of dimethindene maleate was studied in 10 healthy volunteers by the intramuscular route (4 mg in 4 ml solvent). Subjective perception of pain and other reported side effects were registered and objective signs at the injection site were assessed repeatedly. Hematologic and biochemical tests were performed before and after completion of the study. Two volunteers complained about local pain immediately and one hour after the injection. An other volunteer developed a small hematoma within 48 hours after injection. No other side effects or adverse reactions were noted. Good tolerance of dimethindene maleate after intramuscular application could thus be established.
