“In animals injected with morphine plus naloxone, which show altered pain thresholds, high fecal excretion and jumping behaviour, treatment with alpha-lipoic acid increases latency times, decreases fecal excretion and reduces jumping.”
“The administration of a-lipoic acid to rats given morphine or morphine plus naloxone lowers total MDA levels because of its peroxide scavenging capacity.”
“The administration of alpha-lipoic acid is demonstrated to control the alterations in plasma glucose levels, peroxide values or behavioural profile in animals receiving morphine or morphine plus naloxone.”
“The injection of alpha-lipoic acid decreases glycemia in rats treated with morphine or morphine plus naloxone.”
