Abstract
Summary
The action of insulin as potentiator of chlorpromazine was tested. Under conditions of our experiment, insulin had no significant effect on body temperature of rats and on sleeping time of hexobarbital in mice. However insulin greatly potentiates the hypothermia and prolonged hexobarbital sleeping time normally caused by chlorpromazine. On the other hand the hypoglycemic effect of insulin was not potentiated by chlorpromazine.
