  • Title: Gastric mucosal blood flow and acid secretory changes in man with impromidine: a new specific histamine-H2-receptor agonist.
    Author: McIsaac RL, Johnston BJ, Fielding LP.
    Journal: Gut; 1981 Jul; 22(7):529-33. PubMed ID: 6455334.
    Abstract:
    The effect of impromidine, a new histamine-H2-receptor agonist, on gastric mucosal blood flow (neutral red clearance) and acid secretion was studied in nine volunteers. Impromidine stimulated a dose-dependent increase in neutral red clearance and acid secretion. Simultaneous cimetidine in three doses caused a parallel shift to the right for both acid output and clearance with unchanged maxima compatible with simple surmountable antagonism. There were small cardiovascular changes: an increased heart rate with a decreased diastolic pressure during infusion of impromidine. These changes were antagonised by cimetidine.
