Effect of apomorphine and its N-propyl homologue on ethanol withdrawal head twitches in mice.
Collier, Hammond & Schneider (1976) reported that apomorphine, given orally, decreased the incidence of head twitches induced by ethanol withdrawal. These results were confirmed in the present study. Moreover, the N-propyl homologue of apomorphine was about 45 times more potent than apomorphine in affecting head twitching.
