[Metabolic effects of nicotinic acid in different types of experimental vascular pathology in rabbits]

In experiments on rabbits with pituitrin and vasorenal hypertension, the 7-day administration of nicotinic acid (4 mg/kg) produced distinct changes in carbohydrate-energy metabolism in blood vessels of different functions. The metabolic effects of nicotinic acid were dependent on the type of vascular pathology and functional features of blood vessels.
