摘要:The effects of milnacipran, a serotonin and noradrenaline reuptake inhibitor (SNRI) on the obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) model, marble burying behavior, were investigated in mice. Milnacipran above the dosage of 10 mg/kg inhibited marble burying behavior significantly in mice as similar to fluvoxamine. Milnacipran inhibiting marble burying behavior did not affect locomotor activity. These results suggest that milnacipran can inhibit marble burying behavior and that milacipran may be useful for OCD therapy.
