Abstract: This investigation was carried out to study the comparative effects of cimetidine, ranitidine and tiotidine on the plasma levels of testosterone and luetinizing hormone under local conditions. The three H(2)-blocking drugs were injected to the adult male albino rats twice daily at the recommended therapeutic dose levels for six weeks. The data obtained showed that only tiotidine caused a significant (<0.05) increase in the level of testosterone. However, all the three drugs caused a significant rise in the levels of luteinizing hormone with the most active ranitidine administration.
