title: [Comparison of the effects of almitrine, raubasine and 5023 SE on arterial oxygen desaturation during exercise].
abstract: The effects of almitrine (60 mg/24 h), raubasine (20 mg/24 h) and Duxil administered orally were compared in 30 elderly subjects (mean age: 60 years) who showed a decrease in oxygen saturation during maximum exercise. After 1 month of treatment, raubasine proved ineffective whereas almitrine and Duxil significantly reduced this decrease. The effect of Duxil was significantly more pronounced than that of almitrine.
