  • Title: [Influence of cimetidine on hypoglycemia-induced GH secretion].
    Author: Campanella N, Morosini PP, Rinaldi L, Testa I, De Martinis C.
    Journal: Boll Soc Ital Biol Sper; 1979 Jan 15; 55(1):7-9. PubMed ID: 399438.
    Abstract:
    Dopaminergic drugs inhibit prolactin and stimulate GH secretion. On the contrary antidopaminergic drugs stimulate prolactin and decrease hypoglycemia-induced GH secretion. According to the hypothesis that Cimetidine, an H2-receptor antagonist, decreases hypothalamic dopamine secretion, it was evaluated GH response to hypoglycemia after this drug. It was demonstrated that Cimetidine decreases hypoglycemia-induced GH secretion.
