2 The effect of simultaneous administration of 250 mg L-dopa + 25 mg L-carbidopa (Nacom) and 1 mg propranolol/kg body weight (maximal dose 40 mg propranolol) on growth-hormone secretion was tested in 96 children with growth retardation. Propranolol growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens

4 Some of the children who previously had failed to have a satisfactory rise in growth-hormone level after L-dopa and L-carbidopa showed satisfactory stimulation when propranolol was added. Propranolol growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens
