Abstract

Experimental assays analyzing visual evoked potential (VEP) changes during an acute alcoholic intoxication were carried out in two groups of cats: One with continuous ethanol (0.06 g/kg.min) i.v. perfusion. Another one with a naloxone (400 micrograms/kg) i.v. injection 10 min before ethylic perfusion. Naloxone potentiates alcohol effects on VEP parameters, and on the appearance of isoelectric postpotential and flat VEP.
