Tolonidine, 2(2-chloro-p-toluidino)-2-imidazoline-nitrate, is a substance chemically related to clonidine. In the anesthetized dog, tolonidine administered i.v. decreased the amplitude of ventricular contractions, reduced aortic blood flow and increased peripheral vascular resistances. In the bivagotomized pithed rat, tolonidine induced a long-lasting increase in blood pressure with no secondary hypotension, thus suggesting peripheral sympathomimetic properties, however, contractions of seminal vesicles in vitro were not obtained. The product proved to have no peripheral sympatholytic or parasympatholytic properties.

CNS Activity

Curator's Comment: In the central nervous system, tolonidine produced a sedation which first appeared at doses having an antihypertensive effect but which was only fully apparent with increased doses.

Sample Use Guides

The rats: systemic administration of tolonidine in rats (0.05-5.0 umol/Kg) produced behavioural and electrocortical slow-wave sleep lasting between 35 and 200 min depending on the dose. In addition, a dose-dependent fall in deep body temperature was observed. Similar effects were evoked by infusing tolonidine (5-80 nmol) into the third cerebral ventricle.
Route of Administration: Intraperitoneal
