ABSTRACT
The vascular action of crataemon is studied. The effect of the drug on organ blood flow is examined using isotope methods. It is established that under conditions of blood loss, 10 mg/kg crataemon sharply inceases the blood supply to the myocardium and liver. Under the same conditions the blood flow in the kidneys and intestines decreases after administration of the drug. Its effect is weaker in case of normal blood pressure. In the case of perfusion of cat hind legs the flavonoid mixture studied has a biphasic effect manifested in the form of initial brief hypertension, followed by a more prolonged and stronger depressor reaction. In larger oral doses (100 and 200 mg/kg) crataemon increases the resistance of the capillaries and decreases capillary permeability in albino rats. The experiments carried out confirm the predominantly action of crataemon on some vascular regions (heart and liver). It has biphasic effect on peripheral vessels, which may be attributed to the presence of different components. The capillary-tonic action is most probably due to the presence of rutin and rutin-like flavonoids.
