A New Antihypertensive of the Imidazoline Series: 5-Fluoro-2-methyl-imidazolidinylidene-benzamine-monohydrochloride. 5-Fluoro-2-methyl-imidazolidinylidene-benzamine-hydrochloride (flutonidin, ST 600), a new antihypertensive imidazoline compound, was tested over 3 weeks in 20 patients with moderate to severe hypertension. Blood pressure was significantly lowered in both supine and upright position. In nearly 2/3 of the patients treated normalization of blood pressure was achieved. Side effects like sedation, dry mouth or orthostatic complaints were present in 30%. Toxic effects were not registered. It is recommended to reduce the dosage slowly especially in the aged to prevent, in part severe findings after abrupt withdrawal.
