1-acetyl-4-(4-{[2-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-2-(1H-imidazol-1-ylmethyl)-1,3-dioxolan-4-yl]methoxy}phenyl)piperazine : A dioxolane that is 1,3-dioxolane which is substituted at positions 2, 2, and 4 by imidazol-1-ylmethyl, 2,4-dichlorophenyl, and [para-(4-acetylpiperazin-1-yl)phenoxy]methyl groups, respectively.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" To explore the treatment implications of these findings, ketoconazole's (600-900 mg daily) ability to reduce heroin and cocaine use was compared with placebo in 39 methadone maintained patients with a history of cocaine abuse or dependence during a 12-week double blind trial."5.10Ketoconazole increases cocaine and opioid use in methadone maintained patients. ( Feingold, A; Gonsai, K; Kosten, TR; Oliveto, A; Sevarino, KA, 2002)
"Pretreatment with ketoconazole reversed the conditioned reinforcer-induced reinstatement of extinguished cocaine-seeking behavior and also attenuated the conditioned increases in plasma corticosterone observed during reinstatement."1.31Potential role for the hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenal axis in the conditioned reinforcer-induced reinstatement of extinguished cocaine seeking in rats. ( Clampitt, DM; Goeders, NE, 2002)
"Ketoconazole is an FDA-approved antifungal agent that also blocks the synthesis of adrenocorticosteroids and functions as a glucocorticoid receptor antagonist."1.30Ketoconazole does not block cocaine discrimination or the cocaine-induced reinstatement of cocaine-seeking behavior. ( Goeders, NE; Mantsch, JR, 1999)
"Pretreatment with ketoconazole (25 mg/kg, i."1.30Ketoconazole reduces low dose cocaine self-administration in rats. ( Goeders, NE; Guerin, GF; Peltier, RL, 1998)
