| Abstract | STUDY OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effects of pretreatment, midazolam (M), propofol (P), ziprasidone (Z), and two combinations of [(midazolam plus propofol (MP); midazolam plus ziprasidone (MZ)] in mice models in the prevention of seizures, and death due to acute cocaine toxicity. METHODS: 180 male CF-1 mice were randomized to 6 groups (30/group) in this experimental study. The animals were administered intraperitoneal injections of M (2mg/kg), P (25mg/kg), Z (4mg/kg), MP (2mg/kg and 25mg/kg) and MZ (2mg/kg and 4mg/kg) or saline (S) as a pretreatment. 10min later, the mice were administered intraperitoneal injections of 105mg/kg cocaine. The groups were observed for cocaine-induced seizure and lethality. RESULTS: The MP and MZ combinations showed the highest protective effect in terms of seizure and lethality relative to P and S (p<0.001). M and Z were found effective compared to P and S (p<0.001). There were no significant differences among MP and MZ, however there were significant differences between MP and Z in terms of lethality (p=0.05). There were no significant differences among MP, MZ, M and Z groups in terms of seizure (p>0.05). No death was observed in the MP combination group. Seizure rate was observed o be least in the MZ group with respect to the other groups. CONCLUSION: According to our particular mouse model, this study suggests that MP and MZ combinations may be more effective than M or Z only for the prevention of cocaine-induced seizure and lethality. However, P alone does not prevent cocaine-induced seizure and lethality. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
