The effect of the imidazodiazepine Ro 15-4513 on the anticonvulsant effects of diazepam, sodium pentobarbital and ethanol.

D J Nutt, R G Lister.   

Abstract

The ability of the imidazodiazepine Ro 15-4513 to antagonize the anticonvulsant effects of diazepam, sodium pentobarbital and ethanol was investigated. Ro 15-4513 alone significantly lowered seizure threshold to bicuculline and this effect subtracted from the anticonvulsant effects of sodium pentobarbital and ethanol. In contrast, Ro 15-4513 completely reversed the anticonvulsant effects of diazepam, consistent with suggestions that it is a competitive ligand for benzodiazepine receptors.
