Intranasal administration of the specific angiotensin II-antagonist (1-NSuc-5-Val-8-Phg) A II was investigated in anaesthetized rats with different forms of experimentally elevated blood pressure.

In rats with acute accelerated elevation of blood pressure the analogue induced also a significant decrease. No change could be observed in rats with chronic renal hypertension.
