Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Ro 5-4864, a selective ligand for the benzodiazepine micromolar and peripheral receptors, had a significant dose-related (5-20 mg/kg) anxiogenic action in the social interaction test of anxiety."3.66The anxiogenic action of Ro 5-4864 is reversed by phenytoin. ( File, SE; Lister, RG, 1983)
"Nortriptyline was reported in one study as superior for men with alcohol dependency on mean number of drinking days and on alcohol dependence, but not for severity of alcohol misuse or on the patient's or clinician's rating of drinking."2.46Pharmacological interventions for antisocial personality disorder. ( Duggan, C; Ferriter, M; Huband, N; Khalifa, N; Lieb, K; Stoffers, J; Völlm, BA, 2010)
"Phenytoin has two important properties that are advantageous for assessing the validity of the theta suppression model: 1) it is a standard antiepileptic drug with no known anxiolytic effects, and 2) its primary mechanism of action is through suppression of the persistent sodium current, an effect that should also suppress hippocampal theta."1.38A critical test of the hippocampal theta model of anxiolytic drug action. ( Dickson, CT; Treit, D; Yeung, M, 2012)
"Patient compliance can be improved by reducing the complexity of drug dosage and by better labeling, packaging and informational exchange."1.26Once-a-day drug regimen for psychiatric patients. ( Hasan, MK; Mooney, RP, 1981)
