    1 The antipyretic activity of tilorone hydrochloride was studied in conscious, unrestrained cats provided with implanted jugular venous catheters, third cerebral ventricular (i.c.v.) cannulae and retroperitoneal thermocouples. 2 In afebrile animals, 10 mg/kg i.v. or 1 mg i.c.v. tilorone hydrochloride did not alter body temperature, but 20 mg/kg i.v. or 2 to 5 mg i.c.v. caused hypothermia and various behavioural responses. 3 Non-hypothermogenic doses of tilorone (i.v. or i.c.v.) antagonized hyperthermic responses to leucocytic pyrogen (i.v. or i.c.v.), bacterial pyrogen (i.c.v.) and sodium arachidonate (i.c.v.) but did not antagonize prostaglandin E1 (i.c.v.). 4 These results indicate that tilorone has an antipyretic action within the central nervous system that is distinct from its hypothermogenic action. Although there is no published evidence to indicate that tilorone can inhibit prostaglandin synthesis peripherally, its ability to reduce hyperthermic responses to arachidonate suggests that it can inhibit prostaglandin synthesis within the brain.
