THE INFLUENCE OF AGENTS AFFECTING THE AUTONOMIC NERVOUS SYSTEM ON THE MOTILITY OF THE SMALL INTESTINE

Abstract
Ergotamine (0.1 mg./kg.) and prostigmine (0.5 mg./kg.) caused a charcoal mixture to traverse the small intestine of dogs 22 and 38% farther respectively than in the controls. Atropine (1 mg./kg.) and ephedrine (25 mg./kg.) produced results 36 and 35% less respectively than in the controls. Cocaine (10 mg./kg.) produced no significant difference.
