Efficacy and tolerance of ceruletide in radiography of the small intestine

EN Sargent, JM Halls, P Colletti and M Wieler

In a study of 30 patients, the intramuscular injection of ceruletide (0.3 microgram/kg) was safe and effective and resulted in a substantial decrease in the transit time required for the passage of barium to the ileocecal area. The median intestinal transit time following injection of ceruletide was 15 minutes as comapred to 80 minutes following a saline placebo. Adverse reactions were minimal and self-limiting.
