title: Effects of thiofedrine on platelet aggregation, thromboxane B2 and 6-keto-PGF1 alpha in rats.
abstract: Thiofedrine inhibited rat platelet aggregation and intraplatelet thromboxane B2 (TxB2) generation induced by arachidonic acid. The IC50 values were 0.18 and 0.21 mmol/l, respectively. Thiofedrine, 1.25-5.00 mg/kg i.v., showed a significant inhibition of rat platelet aggregation and intraplatelet TxB2 generation induced by arachidonic acid, with ID50 values of 2.4 and 3.3 mg/kg. Thiofedrine, 0.5-2.0 mg/kg i.v., reduced TxB2 generation but increased 6-keto-PGF1 alpha formation in rat plasma.
