Tipindole is serotonin antagonist. It is a monamine oxidase inhibitor. Diarrhea that arises in mice given serotonin intravenously is not suppressed by tipindole. Tipindole exerts no effect on the serotonin-induced contraction and relaxation of the bladder detrusor. Tipindole depresses reflexes from pericardial receptors considerably more than reflexes from carotid sinus receptors. Tipindole blocks chemoreceptors but has no effect on mechanoreceptors – it did not modify impulses produced by mechanoreceptors.
