Possible Interaction: Cocaine and Omega-N-Methylarginine

Research Papers that Mention the Interaction

The in vitro vasoconstriction induced by cocaine was blocked by pretreatment with L-NMMA , whereas L-NMMA did not block the norepinephrine-induced vasoconstriction in vitro.
When rats were pretreated with NG-monomethyl-L-arginine (L-NMMA, a blocker of nitric oxide) and challenged with cocaine , the increase in blood pressure was blocked by 80%, whereas pretreatment with L-NMMA did not block norepinephrine-induced vasoconstriction.

The increase in … induced by cocaine (160 μg, i.e.) was attenuated dose‐dependently by prior cavemosal administration of the NO synthase …, Nω‐nitro‐L‐arginine methyl ester (1‐NAME, 0.5, 1 or 5 pmol) or NG‐monomethyl‐L‐arginine (L‐NMMA, 2.5, 5 or 10 pmol).
