[Toxicological study of the Soviet tetracyclic antidepressant inkazan].
The toxicology of an original Soviet antidepressant inkasan-3-methyl-8-methoxy-3H, 1,2,5,6-tetrahydropyrazino [1,2,3-ab] beta-carboline hydrochloride was studied in different types of experimental animals (mice, rats, rabbits, dogs). It was established that the drug is less toxic than imipramine. The toxic manifestations (seizures, stereotypy) seen in dogs receiving high doses of inkasan for a long time are likely to be linked with a stimulating component that characterizes the drug action on the central nervous system.
