DMAE (2-Dimethylaminoethanol) in the Treatment of Chronic Female Patients in a Mental Hospital
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 08 February 2018
Extract
Work with the tertiary amine arecoline is reported to show that this para-sympathomimetic agent can produce inhibition of conditioned avoidance responses in rats (Pfeiffer and Jenney, 1957a). When given to atropine-protected patients, the compound is said to give intervals of lucidity of an order broadly comparable to that produced by carbon dioxide or amylobarbitone (Fulcher et al., 1957).
