Vasopressin is demonstrated in 100 selected patients as a suitable drug to remove intestinal gas in diagnostic radiology. After subcutaneous injection of 10 IU Vasopressin only slight side-effects occurred in 35% of the patients. Under strict attention of the contraindications the use of Vasopressin is nearly without risk and leads to partially excellent results.
