Finasteride reduces opioid use and withdrawal symptoms in animals.

Anesthetizing walruses is difficult and risky due to their size and sudden health changes.

This study found that duloxetine and escitalopram exhibited broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity, while buspirone had selective effects, and finasteride disrupted yeast virulence traits, suggesting these drugs could be repurposed as antimicrobial therapies.

This case report describes a 23-year-old Asian woman with fluoxetine non-responsive trichotillomania who showed significant improvement with bupropion and cognitive behavior therapy, though confirmation in larger trials is needed.

In this study, researchers found that female rats exhibited more pronounced panic-related escape behavior during hypoxia, particularly in the diestrus phase, and that low-dose fluoxetine reduced this behavior, suggesting its potential for managing panic disorder symptoms related to hormonal cycles in women.

This report documents a case where a man survived sub-acute toxicity from an overdose of the anticancer drug UFT due to effective treatment with antibiotics and granulocyte colony-stimulating factor.

In this animal study, the methanolic extract of Crataeva nurvala leaves was found to possess sedative and anxiolytic properties, potentially linked to GABAergic activity and certain neuroactive compounds.

This study found that Bazhengsan significantly reduced inflammation and hyperplasia in male rats with nonbacterial prostatitis, indicating potential as a treatment for chronic prostatitis.

This study found that Cinobufacin combined with chemotherapy improved clinical outcomes in breast cancer patients and reduced certain side effects compared to chemotherapy alone.

In this study, BS and BO combined showed a synergistic effect in enhancing wound healing in rat skin lesions compared to using either alone or Flamazine®.

This study found that spinal strychnine enhances low threshold tactile responses in cat dorsal horn neurons, which may mirror pain states in humans that are less responsive to opioid treatments.

This study found that in Withdrawal Seizure-Prone mice, ethanol withdrawal decreased the sensitivity of GABA A receptors to GABAergic neurosteroids in certain areas of the brain.

This report describes five cases where sudden akathisia occurred in female patients with bipolar disorder after a ziprasidone dose reduction, emphasizing potential unexpected side effects of second-generation antipsychotics.

This study found that administering botulinum toxin A via Flex-PADs to mouse footpads inhibited sweating similarly to traditional injections, suggesting a promising patient-friendly delivery method for hyperhidrosis treatment.

This study found that midazolam improved PTSD-associated behavioral deficits in rats through its action on the TSPO, CBR, and neurosteroidogenesis pathways.

In this rodent model study, the researchers reported that using low-intensity focused ultrasound with phenytoin enhanced its anti-epileptic efficacy by disrupting plasma protein binding in a region-specific manner, reducing seizure frequency and duration.

This study found that midazolam, unlike clonazepam, increased neurosteroid levels and affected synaptic inhibition and plasticity in rat hippocampal neurons, suggesting unique actions via dual receptor activation.

This study found that the antidepressant-like effect of fluoxetine in mice was only observed when a 5-minute pretest session was conducted, and this effect was blocked by the TSPO antagonist PK11195.

This study found that cromakalim and pinacidil significantly inhibited porcine detrusor muscle contractions, suggesting these ATP-sensitive potassium channel openers may have potential in treating certain bladder diseases.

This animal study found that intravenous administration of anionic squarticles, a lipid nanoemulsion, increased survival rates in rats with amitriptyline overdose by mitigating adverse effects and restoring normal blood pressure, highlighting its potential as a detoxifying antidote.

Phenobarbitone can cause severe and sometimes fatal skin reactions.

This study found that enhanced neurosteroid synthesis likely mediated by the translocator protein contributed to the anticonvulsant action of midazolam in mice.

This study discusses how chronic ethanol exposure and withdrawal affect GABAA receptor subunit expression and function, finding that some changes can be selectively blocked by certain drugs like diazepam and finasteride.

Finasteride reduces certain behaviors caused by D1-like receptor agonists but not by D2-like receptor agonists in mice.

This study found that finasteride reduced opioid self-administration in zebrafish and rats without affecting pain relief, suggesting steroidogenic pathways may offer new treatment avenues for opioid use disorder.

This study found that finasteride affected ethanol withdrawal severity differently in WSP and WSR lines, with more modulation seen in the WSP line.

This study suggests that extrasynaptic δGABA-A receptors may have a protective role in modulating the severity of catamenial-like seizures by influencing neurosteroid and benzodiazepine responses in mice.

This study found that finasteride reduced impulsivity in a rat model of pramipexole-induced probability discounting, possibly by normalizing D3 receptor expression in the nucleus accumbens.
