The complete computational study of the methyldopa drug and its derivatives prodrug 1-4(methyldopa-cellulose (Ce), methyldopa-carboxymethyl cellulose(CMC), methyldopa-maleic anhydride cellulose (MAC)and methyldopa-hydroxypropyl cellulose(HPC)) was performed by Density Function theory method with Becker’s three parameter hybrid functional (B3LYP) 6-31G++ (d, p) basis set using Gaussian 09 progra...

Methyldopa-treated gamma globulin can be demonstrated serologically on either the red cell surface or on latex beads by the indirect antiglobulin reaction. The development of a positive antiglobulin reaction was related to methyldopa concentration and the length and temperature of incubation of methyldopa with protein and could be partially inhibited by the addition of albumin to the incubation...

There is little information on the effects of methyldopa on the human conduction system. His bundle ECGs were obtained in 11 patients before and after the intravenous infusion of 100 mg of methyldopa. Antegrade refractory periods were obtained with the extrastimulus method. The significant results were as follows: the sinus rate was 71 +/- 4 beats per minute before, and 65 +/- 3 beats per minut...

Intracisternal (i.c.) and intravenous (i.v.) administration of methyldopa in conscious rabbits produced closely similar changes in hemodynamics, heart rate, and falls in plasma norepinephrine levels. Two weeks after giving i.c. 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA), when there is widespread destruction of central noradrenergic neurons, the effects of i.c. methyldopa virtually were abolished. This suggests...

In an open, randomized, cross-over study the hypotensive action and side effects of clonidine-chlorthalidone and methyldopa-chlorthalidone combinations were compared. The diastolic morning blood pressure could be reduced to 95 mm. Hg or below in significantly more patients with clonidine than with methyldopa. Side effects, however, were more commonly encountered during the clonidine than during...
