Lorazepam 2 and 4 mg alone and in combination with atropine 0.4 mg and hyoscine 0.4 mg were studied as i.v. surgical premedicants in 150 patients. Relief of anxiety, sedation, patient acceptance, lack of recall and side-effects were evaluated. Hyoscine was found to improve the relief of anxiety and

An investigation was carried out comparing the nature and duration of the cognitive effects of atropine and hyoscine. Thirty patients undergoing a minor gynaecological operation were randomly assigned to one of three groups to receive hyoscine, atropine or placebo as premedication. A battery of

Heart-rate responses to intravenous hyoscine butylbromide, atropine and physiological saline in cumulative dosage regimens have been recorded in six healthy subjects. Atropine sulphate induced bradycardia at low, and tachycardia at higher, dose levels whereas hyoscine butylbromide caused only

A binary mixture of hyoscine butylbromide and ketoprofen was determined by 4 different methods. The first involved determination of hyoscine butylbromide and ketoprofen using the ratio-spectra first-derivative spectrophotometric technique at 211 and 234 nm over the concentration ranges of 2-14 and

BACKGROUND Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy (ESWL) remains the preferred least invasive treatment for urinary tract stones. The main purpose of this study was to compare two treatment modalities for pain control during the ESWL procedure. METHODS From 2013 to 2014, 220 patients received ESWL

BACKGROUND Hyoscine-N-butylbromide (HBB) can induce flattening of colon folds through inhibition of smooth muscle activity, which improves mucosal visualization. Whether this affects polyp detection is controversial. OBJECTIVE To evaluate whether HBB, administered during colonoscopy, improves polyp

BACKGROUND Being a quaternary ammonium compound derived from scopolamine, the alkaloid hyoscine butylbromide (HBB) exerts anticholinergic effects without side effects related to the central nervous system because it does not pass the blood-brain barrier. Clinical experience with this antispasmodic

BACKGROUND Motion sickness - the discomfort experienced when perceived motion disturbs the organs of balance - may include symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, pallor, cold sweats, hypersalivation, hyperventilation and headaches. The control and prevention of these symptoms have included

BACKGROUND This is an update of a Cochrane Review first published in The Cochrane Library in Issue 3, 2004 and previously updated in 2007 and 2009.Motion sickness, the discomfort experienced when perceived motion disturbs the organs of balance, may include symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, pallor,

Intracellular microelectrodes were used to record junction potentials from the circular muscle cells of the guinea pig ileum in vitro at 37 degrees C in a modified Krebs solution containing nifedipine (1-2 microM) and hyoscine (1 microM). Transmural nerve stimulation, using volleys of three pulses

OBJECTIVE We determined whether the addition of hyoscine butylbromide (Buscopan) reduces the amount of opioid analgesia required and the need for ongoing opioid analgesia in acute renal colic. METHODS Patients with a clinical diagnosis of acute renal colic were prospectively randomized to receive

The most disabling form of Parkinsonism is that occurring after encephalitis. It may occur in persons of any age. The results of surgical treatment, which has been used for the most part only for seriously handicapped patients, have been discouraging in general, although in a few isolated

Guinea-pigs were treated with morphine for 6-8 days by subcutaneous implantation of pellets, each containing a mixture of morphine base (120 mg) and morphine hydrochloride (35 mg). Each guinea-pig received a single pellet. Mechanical activity of the circular muscle was recorded in vitro in

1. Low concentrations of eledoisin, acting from the serosal surface of the guinea-pig isolated ileum, had no effect on the peristaltic reflex, whereas in high concentrations it depressed or sometimes abolished this reflex.2. Eledoisin stimulated the peristaltic activity of the guinea-pig ileum

A case of a psychosis induced by ingestion of blossoms of the solanum Brugmansia insigniis is presented. This plant is used by young persons as a hallucinogenic drug. The psychopathology of this kind of intoxication has not been documented in the literature up to now. It is characterized by
