title: Antiamnesic effect of combined treatment with galantamine and estradiol in middle-aged ovariectomized female rats.
abstract: The effect of chronic combined treatment with galantamine and 17beta-estradiol on passive avoidance retention was studied in middle-aged ovariectomized female rats (15 months) with scopolamine-induced amnesia. Combined treatment with galantamine and estradiol completely restored retrieval of memory traces in middle-aged ovariectomized female rats.
