Chlorisondamine failed to lower heart rate significantly in 4 or 7 day old rats, but lowered the rate by 50 to 80 beats per min in the older animals. Atropine had little or no effect on heart rate. Chlorisonamine inhibited the increase in ganglionic DOPAC following preganglionic stimulation (5 Hz, 30 min) by 30-50%.

| "From a study on the interrelationship between electroshock-induced convulsions, autonomic function, catecholamines, and cardiovascular homeostasis in dogs, the authors found that: (1) the asystole of electroshock (ES) was significnatly prolonged by high spinal anesthesia but not by relative alpha- or beta-adrenergic blockade; (2) increased levels of circulating catecholamines were solely responsible for the marked hypertensive response to ES, since the pressor effect could be blocked by preventing the release of catecholamines with high spinal anesthesia or by inhibiting alpha-adrenergic receptors with phenoxybenzamine; (3) the adrenal medulla appeared to be the source of most of the ES-induced increase in circulating catecholamines; (4) the asystole and arrhythmias of ES were a cholinergic effect, since they were blocked by atropine; (5) there was a dose-response relationship between the coulombs of electricity administered and the catecholamine and cardiovascular responses; and (6) that the adverse cardiovascular effects of ES therapy could be ameliorated pharmacologically." | ( Autonomic blockade and the cardiovascular and catecholamine response to electroshock.
