    Author: Karpova MN, Kuznetsova LV, Zin'kovskii KA, Klishina NV.
    Journal: Bull Exp Biol Med; 2016 Feb; 160(4):429-31. PubMed ID: 26902360.
    Abstract:
    We studied anticonvulsant effects of combined treatment with citicoline, a nootropic substance with neuroregenerative and neuroprotective activities, and valproate, an antiepileptic agent widely used in the treatment of epilepsy, on the model of pentylenetetrazole-induced (75 mg/kg, intraperitoneally) acute generalized convulsions in male Wistar rats. Combined treatment with citicoline and valproate in minimum effective doses (70 and 300 mg/kg, respectively) potentiated the anticonvulsant properties of both agents.
