Popis: | Rats withdrawal from long-term diphenylhydantoin treatment (DPH) were tested for their sensibility to convulsant stimuli. Animals were more sensitive to convulsions elicited by maximal electroshock and sound, respectively, at 48 and 72 h after drug removal. These results suggest that long-term DPH treatment might develop a central nervous system supersensitivity state. |
