nimodipine and Morphine Abuse

nimodipine has been researched along with Morphine Abuse in 8 studies

Nimodipine: A calcium channel blockader with preferential cerebrovascular activity. It has marked cerebrovascular dilating effects and lowers blood pressure.
nimodipine : A dihydropyridine that is 1,4-dihydropyridine which is substituted by methyl groups at positions 2 and 6, a (2-methoxyethoxy)carbonyl group at position 3, a m-nitrophenyl group at position 4, and an isopropoxycarbonyl group at position 5. An L-type calcium channel blocker, it acts particularly on cerebral circulation, and is used both orally and intravenously for the prevention and treatment of subarachnoid hemorrhage from ruptured intracranial aneurysm.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"The effect of chronic administration of dihydropyridine calcium channel antagonist nimodipine (1 mg/kg/day) given concurrently with morphine on the signs of morphine withdrawal and on the [3H]nitrendipine binding in the rat brain has been investigated."1.29Concurrent nimodipine attenuates the withdrawal signs and the increase of cerebral dihydropyridine binding after chronic morphine treatment in rats.
