Comparison in conscious rabbits of the baroreceptor-heart rate reflex effects of chronic treatment with rilmenidine, moxonidine, and clonidine

We investigated the effects of chronic subcutaneous treatment with centrally-acting antihypertensive agents moxonidine, rilmenidine and clonidine on the baroreflex control of heart rate (HR) in conscious normotensive rabbits over 3 weeks. Infusions of phenylephrine and nitroprusside were performed a...
