Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"With the exception of Parkinson's disease, there is little evidence that treatments which decrease DA function are potent inducers of depression, but it is argued that such a relationship might not necessarily be expected."2.36Dopamine and depression: a review of recent evidence. I. Empirical studies. ( Willner, P, 1983)
"Piribedil is a relatively selective dopamine agonist with moderate antidepressant activity."1.27Neuroendocrine effects of the dopamine agonist piribedil in depressed patients. ( Ballenger, JC; Gold, PW; Joffe, RT; Post, RM; Rakita, R; Rebar, R, 1986)
