  • Title: Lithium: effects on subjective functioning and morphine-induced euphoria.
    Author: Jasinski DR, Nutt JG, Haertzen CA, Griffith JD, Bunney WE.
    Journal: Science; 1977 Feb 11; 195(4278):582-4. PubMed ID: 319532.
    Abstract:
    The therapeutic usefulness of lithium in decreasing the euphoria and other symptoms associated with manic behavior and the hypothesis of a common final mechanism for elevations in mood have led to speculation that lithium may block the euphoria induced by drugs of abuse. In this study, lithium alone was antieuphoric in drug-free opiate addicts and, further, did not block morphine-induced euphoria.
