In a previous study it was found that i.t. administration of L-baclofen decreased arterial pressure and heart rate while D-baclofen differentially increased arterial pressure. The objective of the present study was to determine which of these effects was blocked by

The behavior effects of racemic baclofen and the R and S enantiomers were studied in order to determine whether the stereospecificity found in receptor binding studies also applies to the behavioral actions of the drug. Racemic and R-baclofen inhibited sexual

The affinities of a number of analogues of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) for GABAA and GABAB receptor sites and GABA uptake were studied using rat brain membrane preparations. Studies on the (S)-(+)- and (R)-(-)-isomers of baclofen, 3-hydroxy-4-aminobutyric acid (3-OH-GABA), and 4,5-dihydromuscimol

Racemic 3-(p-chlorophenyl)-4-aminobutanoic acid was resolved into enantiomers and their absolute configuration determined. Pharmacological activity of hydrochlorides of the racemic acid and its enantiomers has been determined. The R(+) enantiomer was found to be 4.2-9.2-fold as effective as the S(-) one
