Abstract: | The present experiment explored the anorectic and adipsic effects of fluprazine hydrochloride, a phenylpiperazine compound. Thirty-eight albino rats were randomly assigned either to a control saline group (six rats) or to groups (eight subjects each) receiving an IP dose of fluprazine in saline (1.25, 2.5, 5 or 10 mg/kg). No anorectic effect of the drug doses was observed 30, 60, 90, 120, 180 and 240 min, and 24 h after drug injection. However, water drinking was significantly decreased 30 min after drug administration, with 5 and 10 mg/kg, compared to saline. |
