  • Title: Misonidazole neurotoxicity in rats: Part II. Effect of pre- and intermittent treatment with pentobarbital on misonidazole neurotoxicity in the rat.
    Author: Edwards MS, Gordon DG, Salamy A, Levin VA, Phillips TL.
    Journal: J Neurooncol; 1984; 2(2):95-8. PubMed ID: 6481429.
    Abstract:
    Rats pretreated for 5 days with 50 mg/kg of pentobarbital tolerated statistically significant higher doses of misonidazole before the onset of misonidazole-induced neurotoxicity than rats treated intermittently with the same dose of pentobarbital. Presumably in pretreated rats, pentobarbital induced an increase in the activities of hepatic microsomal enzymes that led to a more rapid metabolism of misonidazole than in rats treated only intermittently.
