[Experimental study of the effect of rubidium on the cardiovascular system]

The experimental data on the chronic inhalation effects of rubidium on the myocardium and the rate of natural organism aging are presented. No cardiotoxic effect of rubidium sulfate has been established. Hypotensive effect is associated with neurohormonal shifts at the level of an integral organism. Its impact does not result it potassium displacement in cells. Rubidium standardization should be carried out without taking account of gerontogenic effect.
