    Abstract:
    The efficacy and tolerability of Ceruletide and Neostigmin were compared in patients with postoperative intestinal atonia after extensive gynecological surgical operations. Patients treated with Ceruletide (n = 30, dosage of Ceruletide 2 ng/kg/min. i.v.) showed earlier defecation than the Neostigmin-group (n = 30, dosage of neostigmin 3 x 0,5 mg/die). The frequency of side effects was comparable in both groups, patients treated with Ceruletide suffered mainly from gastrointestinal symptoms (nausea) whereas patients treated with Neostigmin complained of disorders of circulation. Ceruletide is faster effective than Neostigmin, the tolerability of both drugs is equivalent.
