    Journal: Ann Endocrinol (Paris); 1979; 40(6):565-6. PubMed ID: 547879.
    Abstract:
    42 patients suspected of pheochromocytoma underwent to sulpirid and glucagon tests. 6 patients had pheochromocytoma: 3 failed to respond to glucagon and 2 to sulpirid. The 36 other patients had no clinical or blood pressure changes after sulpirid injection. We did not know any complication in positive tests and any clinical unconfort in negative tests. These results confirm the interest of sulpirid test in pheochromocytoma.
