Cocaine

Research Papers that Mention the Interaction

To examine whether attenuation of HPA function reduces the effects of cocaine in humans, one female and seven male 'crack' cocaine abusers were pretreated with three doses of ketoconazole (0, 600, 1200 mg), an inhibitor of adrenocorticoid biosynthesis, 1 h before receiving cocaine.
Behavioural pharmacology  •  1998  |  View Paper
Rationale: Ketoconazole , an inhibitor of corticosterone synthesis, has been reported to decrease the self-administration of low doses of cocaine and prevent stress-induced reinstatement of cocaine-reinforced behavior in rats.
Results: Pretreatment with ketoconazole decreased both the rate of acquisition of cocaine self-administration and the percentage of rats meeting the acquisition criterion but only under food-restricted conditions.
Psychopharmacology  •  2001  |  View Paper
Given subacutely (24, 16 and 1 h before tests), ketoconazole (50 mg/kg) produced a left-ward shift in the dose-response curve for cocaine and decreased its ED50 value.
