title: Increased stimulatory effect by the combined administration of cocaine and alcohol in mice.
abstract: Locomotor activity was recorded after 5-30 mg/kg of cocaine in mice pretreated or not with a stimulant dose of ethanol (2.0 g/kg). The increase in locomotion induced by the association of cocaine plus ethanol was significantly larger when compared to either the group injected with only cocaine or only ethanol.
