Central Nervous System Stimulants: Neuropharmacological Mechanisms

1988
The mechanisms underlying CNS-stimulant drug discrimination are discussed. Although different doses of CNS stimulants may produce qualitatively different cues, it appears that a relatively low dose of d-amphetamine (e.g., 1 mg/kg) elicits a "general" CNS-stimulant cue.

Central Nervous System Stimulants

2014
It has been estimated that 1.5 % of the general population complains of excessive daytime sleepiness or excessive sleep amounts consistent with a hypersomnia disorder. Narcolepsy is a neurological disorder affecting the regulation of sleep and wakefulness.

Behavioral pharmacology of central nervous system stimulants

Neuropharmacology, 1987
Central nervous system stimulants can be distinguished on the basis of their differential effects in various behavioral tests. There are sufficient differences between these drugs to suggest that one could develop CNS stimulants with more selective behavioral actions.

Optical Stimulation of the Central Nervous System In Vitro

Biomedical Optics, 2008
Optical stimulation in the central nervous system could potentially provide less invasive techniques for procedures involving stimulation of neurons in Neurosurgery. Optical stimulation of the thalamocortical brain slice model indicated a frequency and wavelength dependence.

Central Nervous System Stimulants and Drugs that Suppress Appetite

2014
The Side Effects of Drugs Annuals form a series of volumes in which the adverse effects of drugs and adverse reactions to them are surveyed. The series supplements the contents of Meyler's Side Effects of Drugs: the International Encyclopedia of Adverse Drug Reactions and Interactions.

Biological effects of central nervous system stimulants

Addiction, 1994
AbstractIn both animals and man, stimulants such as the amphetamines and cocaine are reinforcing and thus motivate repeated drug‐taking behaviour and leading to abuse. Although this class of drugs seems to act by different biological mechanisms in the central nervous system, it has been suggested that their action to increase dopaminergic ...

Salivary Secretions: Narcolepsy and Central Nervous System Stimulants

Journal of Dental Research, 1998
In an ongoing attempt to develop a model to study the influence of various diseases and drugs on saliva, we studied persons with narcolepsy treated with central nervous system stimulants. The aim was to study the secretion of salivary proteins in narcolepsy in the presence and absence of central nervous system stimulants.

Uropharmacology: X. Central nervous system stimulants and depressants

Urology, 1979
Several drugs that are utilized primarily for their effects on the central nervous system also affect lower urinary tract function. Most of these effects are produced by the action of these drugs on adrenergic and cholinergic receptors or by direct action of lower urinary tract musculature.

Metal Chelates of Oxazolidinones as Central Nervous System Stimulants

Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, 1962
In an attempt to determine the effect of chelation upon central nervous system activity, a series of metal chelates have been prepared of 2-imino-5-phenyl-4-oxazolidinone, 2-imino-5, 5-diphenyl-4-oxazolidinone, and 2-imino-5-p-biphenyl-4-oxazolidinone, using Cu++, Ni++, Mg++, and Fe+++ions.

Stimulation of the Central and Peripheral Nervous System for the Control of Pain

Journal of Clinical Neurophysiology, 1997
After suffering some setbacks since its introduction in 1967, stimulation of the spinal and peripheral nervous systems has undergone rapid development in the last ten years. Based on principles enunciated in the Gate Control Hypothesis that was published in 1968, stimulation-produced analgesia [SPA] has been subjected to intensive laboratory and ...
