racemetirosine and Encephalopathy, Toxic

racemetirosine has been researched along with Encephalopathy, Toxic in 2 studies

alpha-Methyltyrosine: An inhibitor of the enzyme TYROSINE 3-MONOOXYGENASE, and consequently of the synthesis of catecholamines. It is used to control the symptoms of excessive sympathetic stimulation in patients with PHEOCHROMOCYTOMA. (Martindale, The Extra Pharmacopoeia, 30th ed)

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" To determine if the vesicular pool of DA was essential for the expression of METH-induced DA neurotoxicity, reserpine (3 mg/kg, given iintraperitoneally 24-26 h prior to METH) was given prior to a toxic dose regimen of METH."1.31Evidence against an essential role of endogenous brain dopamine in methamphetamine-induced dopaminergic neurotoxicity.
