Abstract
A number of experiments carried out in recent years, have emphasized individual differences in reactivity to many psychotropic agents, both in humans and in laboratory animals. This may be due to differences in the rate of absorption, distribution, metabolism, or excretion of drugs; or to differences in the sensitivity of target systems to compounds acting at the central nervous system (CNS) level.Keywords
