Molecular FormulaC11H13ClN2O2
CAS No.79944-56-2
ProtocolIn VivoIdazoxan (0.16-5 mg/kg; subcutaneous injection; for 1 hour; male CD-COBS rats) treatment potently reverses haloperidol-induced catalepsy with an ED50 of 0.25 mg/kg. Idazoxan (0.3 and 2.5 mg/kg) has no effect on extracellular DA and do not modify the rise of extracellular DA induced by haloperido
Animal modelMale CD-COBS rats injected with 1 mg/kg haloperidol
Dosages0.16 mg/kg, 0.31 mg/kg, 0.63 mg/kg, 1.25 mg/kg, 2.5 mg/kg, and 5.0 mg/kg
AdministrationSubcutaneous injection; for 1 hour

Calculation Results:
Working concentration: mg/ml;
Method for preparing DMSO master liquid: mg drug pre-dissolved in µL DMSO(Master liquid concentration mg/mL) ,Please contact us first if the concentration exceeds the DMSO solubility of the batch of drug.
Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take µL DMSO master liquid, next add µL PEG300, mix and clarify, next add µL Tween 80,mix and clarify, next add µL ddH2O,mix and clarify.
Note:
  • (1) Please be sure that the solution is clear before the addition of next solvent. Dissolution methods like vortex, ultrasound or warming and heat may be used to aid dissolving.
  • (2) Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order.
