PHARMACOLOGY OF TREMOR-PRODUCING AMINO ALCOHOLS

Abstract
The pharmacological properties of a series of amino alcohols of the general formula RCH(NH2)ṁ(CH2)nṁC(OH)R2 have been studied The most striking action of these compounds is their ability to produce a sustained tremor, which is compared with those produced by other tremorogenic agents. The activities of various drugs as antagonists of the amino alcohol tremor are described.
