1 Castor oil (2 ml orally) produced copious diarrhoea in rats 3 h after its administration. 2 Pretreatment (intraperitoneal, i.p.) of rats with the NO synthesis inhibitors NG‐nitro‐l‐arginine methyl ester (l‐NAME, 1–25 mg kg−1) and NG‐monomethyl‐l‐arginine (l‐NMMA, 2.5–100 mg kg−1) inhibited or prevented castor‐oil‐induced diarrhoea. l‐Arginine (150–600 mg kg−1, i.p.) administered to rats pretreated with l‐NAME 10 mg kg−1, drastically reduced the antidiarrhoeal activity of l‐NAME in a dose‐related manner. d‐Arginine (900 mg kg−1) did not modify the protection by l‐NAME. 3 Pretreatment (i.p.) of rats with l‐NAME (2.5–25 mg kg−1) decreased the intestinal fluid accumulation and Na+ secretion induced by castor oil. l‐Arginine (600 mg kg−1) but not d‐arginine (900 mg kg−1) counteracted the inhibitory effect of l‐NAME (10 mg kg−1). 4 l‐NAME (10 and 25 mg kg−1) had no significant effect on the intestinal transit in normal rats or those given castor oil. 5 These results provide evidence that nitric oxide (NO) could play an important role in castor‐oil‐induced diarrhoea.
