Xylazine and ketamine hydrochloride were given intramusculary to 32 deers (sika deer 7, red deer 11, elk 6, pere david deer 3, and reindeer 5). Ketamine hydrochloride was injected 30 minutes after administration of xylazine. Sedative action of combined anesthesia of xylazine and ketamine hydrochloride was similar to the sedative effects of xylazine alone. The recovery from sedation of combined anesthesia was remarkably fast comparing with xylazine alone.

To elucidate the effects of Chokyungsan and Chunkeunchokyungtang, after oral administration of Chokyungsan and Chunkeunchokyungtang water extract in mice and rats, acute toxicity, analgesic, sedative, esoogenic actions, action on isolated uterine muscle were measured. The rlesults obtained were as follows: 1. The yield of water extract of Chokyungsan and Chunkeunchokyungtang was 24.5%, 32.2%, minimum lethal dose was 4,000mg/kg, which rarely had the acute toxicity in mice and rats. 2. The analgesic effects of Chokyungsan and Chunkeunchokyungtang by acetic acid induced writhing syndrome in mice were not remarkaely observed. 3. The relaxant action of Chokyungsan on on oxytocin induced contracted uterine muscle in estrogenized rats were not remarkably observed, but Chunkeunchokyungtang were remarked. 4. The sedative effects of Chokyungsan and Chunkeunchokyungtang by hexobabital sodium induced sleeping time in mice. 5. administration of Chokyungsan and Chunkeunchokyungtang caused remarkable increase in weight of rat's uterus.

Baikgeumhoan is well known for cure of epilepsy. In order to investigate the anticonvulsion, analgesic action and sedative effect of Baikgeumhoan pharmacological studies have been carried out with Baikgeumhoan. Baikgeumhoan is composed of two drugs; Rhizoma curcumae and Alumen. The results were as follows ; 1. Anticonvulsion effect against the convulsion induced by picrotoxin in Mice was significantly recognized. 2. Analgesic action estimated by the acetic acid stimulating meehod was shown in Mice. 3. Sedative effect was shown in Mice. Considering the above experimental results, it is suggested that the effects of Baikgeumhoan based on the Oriental medicinal references were similary consistant with actual experimental results.

To elucidate the effects of Onkyungtang. after oral administration of Onkyungtang water extract in mice and rats, acute toxicity. analgesic. sedative, estrogenic actions. action on isolated uterine muscle were measured. The results obtained were as follows: 1. The yield of water extract of Onkyungtang was 24.5%, minimum lethal dose was 4,000mg/kg, which rarely had the acute toxicity in mice and rats. 2. The analgesic effects of Onkyungtang by acetic acid induced writhing syndrome in mice were not remarkably observed. 3. The relaxant action of Onkyungtang on oxytocin induced contracted uterine muscle in estrogenized rats were not remarkably observed. 4. The sedative effects of Onkyungtang by hexobarbital sodium induced sleeping time in mice were remarked. 5. Administration of Onkyungtang caused remarkable increase in weight of rat's uterus.

These studies were conducted to investigate the effect of Yijin-tang on the anticonvulsion, analgesic, sedative actions, effect on blood vessels and blood pressure. The result of these studies was summarized as follows; Suppressive action was shown on convulsion due to cerebrocortical causes, but no such actions were noted either myelic or diencephaltic causes in mice. Analgesic and sedative actions were significantly recognized in mice. Increasing of blood pressure and vasocontractive actions were noted.

In order to investigate the pharmacological activities of the combined preparation of crude drugs, Chunghyulgangki-Tang was studied. Chunghyulgangki-Tang has been widely used to cerebral apoploxy, hypertension and arteriosclerosis, etc. In this study, water extract of Chunghyulgangki-Tang was conducted in attempt to investigate for analgesic, sedative, antipyretic, isolated ileum and heart, blood vessels and blood pressure action in mice, frogs, rats, guinea-pigs and rabbits. The following results were obtained; Analgesic action by the acetic acid stimulating method in mice was recognized. Sedative activities by the wheel cage method and rotor rod method in mice were shown. Prolonged action against the hypnotic duration induced by thiopental-Na was significantly noted in mice. The effect of antipyretic in endotoxin febrile rats was significantly recognized. Spontaneous motility of the isolated ilem of mice was suppressed and contractions of the isolated ileum of mice and guinea-pigs induced by acetylcholine chloride, barium chloride and histamine were remarkably inhibited. Acceleration of isolated heart motility was shown in frogs. Vaso-dilating and hypotensive actions were recognized in rabbits. According to the above results, effects based on the oriental medicinal references were approximate to the actural experimental results.

Experimental studies were made to evaluate clinical efficacy and validate Oriental medicine description of 'Banhabaikchulchenma-Tang' which has been used for controlling of headache, heartburn and giddiness, etc. The results of these studies were as follows; 1) Suppressive actions were not shown on convulsion due to spine and diencephatic causes. 2) Analgesic action was recognized in mice and rats. 3) Sedative actions due to prolongation of hypnosis time, muscle relaxation and decreasing locomotive function were noted. 4) Relaxing action was noted in the ileum of mice, also antagonistic antispasmodic action was recognized on contraction of the ileum induced by acteylcholine and $BaCl_2$. In connection with results of these studies, efficacy based on the Oriental medical reference were consistant with actual experimental results. It is considered that 'Banhabaikchulchenma-Tang' has the therapeutic effect on the headache and giddiness, etc.

To investigate the experimental effects of Chunwangboshimdan which have been widely used for aterial or auricular flutter, neurosis, insomnia and disease caused by cardiac malfunction, we have done the effects on the central nervous and cardiovascular system. The result as follow; It inhibited the convulsion induced by caffeine, the writhing syndrome induced by acetic acid and the spontaneous movement. Furthermore it prolonged the sleeping time induced by thiopental-Na in mice. It also showed the negative inotropic action on the isolated heart of frog, the vasodilative action as to peripheral bloods of rabbit ear and the hypotensive action in the anesthetized rabbit.

Pharmacological activities of two sesquiterpenes, curzerenone(I), and curcumenol(II) isolated from the rhizomes of Curcuma zedoaria being used as an aromatic stomachic in Chinese medicines were evaluated in rats and mice. Curzerenone (I), at 100mg/kg, p.o. showed a potent protective effect against HCl-ethanol induced gastric lesion in rats, and curcumenol(II), at the same dose level showed a CNS depressant action characterized by a potentiation of hexobarbital(HB)-induced narcosis. Both compounds showed a moderate analgesic action but did not exhibit a hypothermic action even at 200mg/kg dose level.
