Abstract
The peptides of the formula ##STR1## together with their pharmacologically acceptable salts, which have been described as exhibiting analgesic, antidiarrhoeal and antitussive activity, are effective in reversing neuronally-mediated bronchoconstriction in mammals. The said compounds have application in the palliation of conditions characterized by such a state, in particular asthma in human beings.
