After a brief review on the orthostatic disturbances in the regulation of blood circulation the author stresses upon the treatment of the orthostatic hypotonia with dihydrated ergotamine derivatives (Dihydergot retard). A favourable effect was obtained in 59 patients (84.3%) out of the treated 45 patients with secondary orthostatic hypotonia and 25 patients with primary hypotonia. The treatment of orthostatic hypotonia with dihydrated ergotamine derivatives was emphazised to be pathogenetically grounded, because tones the venous system (system of low pressure) and eliminates the developed contraregulatory sympathicotonia. Its combination with low doses of sympathominetics improves even more the effect.
