A test was made on the effect of rotundine on the secretion of gastric acid and pepsin activity in rats. Compared with the control group, rotundine(> or = 17.1 mg/kg) inhibited gastric acid and decreased secretion of gastric juice(P < 0.01), but had no influence on pepsin activity. There was a negative relationship between total acidity and pH of gastric juice (r = -0.9818).
