1. Many of the responses of plain muscle to drugs that are frequently described as transient appear so because the experimental conditions record only part of the response. 2. The phasic responses frequently observed can be explained on the assumption that the drug produces some rapid change, and that other changes, which proceed more slowly, modify the initial response. 3. These apparent transient actions do not necessitate the assumption of the potential action of drugs. My thanks are due to Prof. A. J. Clark for assistacnce and advice in carrying out this research.
