THE EFFECT OF LITHIUM ON ACUTE TOXICITY OF CARBAMAZEPINE IN MICE
The effects of chronic administration of lithium, on acute toxicity of carbamazepine (CBZ) in mate albino mice was studied and the LD50 values were determined from dose-probit curves. The results showed that in lithium pretreated animals (animals consumed drinking water contraining 600 mg/L lithium...
