In experiments on freely moving male Wistar rats it was shown that nifedipine in a dose 10 mg/kg (i.p.) suppressed the penicillin-induced focal epileptic activity in cerebral cortex. A similar suppressing effect of nifedipine was shown on acute generalized tonic-clonic pentylenetetrazol (PTZ) seizures (75 mg/kg, i.p.). Nifedipine in the same dose was not effective on chronic PTZ administration (PTZ-kindling, 30 mg/kg i.p. during 28 days): when injected 30 min before each PTZ administration it didn't delay the development of kindling induced seizure susceptibility and had no effect on the severity of seizures. The administration of nifedipine in a dose of 10 or 30 mg/kg to control kindled animals which had not been treated with nifedipine had no influence on the severity of seizures provoked by a testing dose of PTZ (30 mg/kg i.p.): its intensity was similar to that of caused by PTZ injection along. |
