title: Prazosin inhibits small intestinal transit in the rat.
abstract: Gastric emptying, small intestinal transit, and colonic transit were measured in fasted rats preimplanted with either duodenal or colonic cannulae. At the doses stated, prazosin (given subcutaneously) had no effect on gastric emptying or colonic transit, whereas small intestinal transit was significantly delayed.
