Pharmacological analysis of the haemodynamic effects of 5‐HT 1B/D receptor agonists in the normotensive rat
The receptors involved in mediating the haemodynamic effects of three 5‐HT 1B/D receptor agonists were investigated in pentobarbitone anaesthetized rats ( n =6–17 per group). Cumulative intravenous (i.v.) infusions of rizatriptan and sumatriptan (from 0.63 to 2500 μg kg −1 ; each dose over 5 min) in...
