[The antiamnesic properties of antidepressants]

The experiments on albino rats demonstrated that antidepressants pyrazidol, imipramine, incazane, moclobemide and to a lesser degree azaphen reduce the amnesic effects of electroshock and scopolamine in the rats with the acquired conditioned reaction of passive avoidance. The studied antidepressants decrease also the disturbing action of alcohol on the learning of rats of the conditioned reaction of active avoidance.
