Abstract

The effect of oral administration of a new beta blocker trimepranol (1‐[3,5,6‐trimethyl‐4‐acetoxyphenoxyl‐3‐isopropylamino‐2‐propanol]) on serum levels of growth hormone (GH), immunoreactive insulin (IRI), glucose, and free fatty acids (FFA) has been studied in normal persons. Fasting levels of GH, IRI, glucose, and FFA after trimepranol were not changed. The concentration of glucose and secretory response of IRI during oral glucose tolerance test decreased after trimepranol. The insulinogenic index was not changed. The total secretory response of GH during glucose tolerance test after trimepranol was enhanced. The levels of FFA during glucose tolerance test were not changed.
