Use of glycine/NMDA receptor ligands for the manufacture of a medicament for the treatment of drug dependence and withdrawal

摘要

Compounds capable of interacting with the strychnine-insensitive glycine modulatory site of the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor are active in preventing or reducing dependence on dependence-inducing agents such as morphine, but lack the undesirable side-effects of agents hitherto employed for this purpose.
