  • Title: Pharmacological findings on cetiedil.
    Author: Boissier JR, Aurousseau M, Giudicelli JF, Duval D.
    Journal: Arzneimittelforschung; 1978; 28(12):2222-8. PubMed ID: 582934.
    Abstract:
    The molecule of cetiedil (Stratène) has strong papaverine-like and weak atropine-like properties. It brings about peripheral vasodilation at doses which do not affect arterial blood pressure, heart beat and cardiac efficacy; this new drug increases the activity of beta-adrenergic stimulants. There may be different hypotheses to explain the therapeutic effect of cetiedil; beside its papaverinic and synergistic beta-stimulant properties, it increases the haemodynamic coefficient, plays a role in the process of membrane Ca++ exchange and inhibits phosphodiesterase and platelet aggregation.
