title: [Plethysmographic researches on the beginning and duration of the pharmacological action of an isosorbide dinitrate drugs with prolonged action (author's transl)].
abstract: Taking into consideration a previous work, where we experimented the pharmacological action of different products of nitrite retard and from which resulted the absolute superiority of isosorbide dinitrate, we considered interesting to repeat the experimentation with a new form of isosorbide dinitrate characterized by an action duration more prolonged in the time owing to the particular freeing of the active principle. In 20 patients free from peripheral vasculopathy it was enregistered the rheogram with derivation back-feet-big toe in base condition and at 1st, 3rd, 5th and 10th hour from the administration of Nitrosorbide Retard 20 mg. The product action, put in evidence by the appearance of the typical pulse by nitrite, begins the first hour, it reaches the maximum at the 5th hour on average and it clearly lasts until the 10th hour. Therefore it is demonstrated the practical usefulness of this product in the daily clinical medicine considered its characteristics of action rapidity, duration and steadfastness.
