## Abstract The metabolism and pharmacokinetics of intravenously administered theophylline (100 mg) have been investigated in three healthy male volunteers who consumed 6 bottles day of a cola beverage, in addition to their usual intake of methylxanthines, for 7 days prior to and during the study.
## Abstract Rats were handled for 3 min daily for 3 weeks before or after weaning or were left totally undisturbed. At 80 days of age, animals from each group were selected for corticosterone halfβlife determination. Adrenal tissue from the remaining animals was incubated __in vitro__ in the presen
The effects of corticosterone (β¬3) and its reduced metabolite 5 a-dihydrocorticosterone (DHB) on CNS activity in the rat were examined. Two indices of brain excitability were evaluated: 1) amplitude of population responses (evoked potentials [EP] to sciatic nerve stimulation) and 2 ) changes in the
