Abstract

1) The injection of insulin in large doses produces exhaustion of the adrenal glands if the coma is maintained for a long time, and in consequence the content of ascorbic acid practically disappears.

2) The fact that avertine produces an increase of vitamen C in the adrenal glands is also proved by other authors.

3) The injection of sodio-evipan scarcely affects the ascorbic content of the adrenal glands.
