  1. 01AnimalAnimal study (in vivo)Efficacy outcome

    In rats treated with chlorpromazine-morphine-pentobarbital, intravenous DSIP reduced corticosterone release stimulated by corticotropin releasing factor.

    In plain wordsIn rats, DSIP given into a vein lowered the corticosterone rise caused by CRF.
