Abstract
Fenoctimine (4-(diphenylmethyl)-1-[(octylimino)methyl]piperidine) sulfate was evaluated for gastric antisecretory activity in the acute gastric fistula rat and chronic gastric fistula dog. It showed potent gastric antisecretory activity of long duration in the rat, and was more potent on a mg/kg basis than cimetidine. In the dog, fenoctimine showed significant activity against gastrin tetrapeptide, histamine, and bethanechol. It was least potent against bethanechol, indicating a lack of significant anticholinergic activity in the dog at the doses tested. It had a long duration of action in the dog with doses of 6 mg/kg, showing significant activity even at 24 hr. Fenoctimine does not appear to fit the spectrum of activity associated with other known antisecretory agents and may have a unique mechanism of action related to effects directly on parietal cells.
