Abstract
Clonidine, a proposed .alpha.-noradrenergic receptor stimulant, intensifies the aggression occurring during morphine-withdrawal or following the administration of apomorphine [in rats]. The possibility of a noradrenergic/dopaminergic interaction in drug-induced aggression is discussed.This publication has 1 reference indexed in Scilit:
