Title: The anticonvulsant action of methazolamide in mice: antagonism by various inhibitors of dopamine beta-hydroxylase. Author: Lotti VJ, Torchiana ML, Stone CA. Journal: Eur J Pharmacol; 1977 Aug 15; 44(4):387-90. PubMed ID: 19268. Abstract: The dopamine beta-hydroxylase inhibitors, FLA-63 and picolinic acid, antagonized the anticonvulsant action of methazolamine in mice; disulfiram and pyrimidinethiol were inactive. FLA-63 and picolinic acid, but not disulfiram or pyrimidinethiol prevented pheniprazine restoration of the anticonvulsant action of methazolamide in reserpinized mice. The present findings clearly demonstrate that differences exist among inhibitors of dopamine beta-hydroxylase regarding their ability to antagonize the anticonvulsant action of methazolamide under various test conditions.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
