Summary
The effect of Embikhine on the body temperature and on the changes of the oxygen intake was studied during various stages of experimentally induced fever. It was established that the introduction of Embikhine to the intact animals does not result in decrease of body temperature. Its effect on the rise of temperature or the character of changes of oxygen intake is immaterial (there is only a certain monotony and fewer variations in the intake of oxygen). The mechanism of the antipyretic effect of Embikhine in treatment of patients with lymphogranuloma evidenty consists in the specific effect on the pathological process, since Embikhine by itself has no pronounced antipyretic action.
