Phosphatidylserine: quantitative EEG effects in healthy volunteers.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:Due to its pharmacological properties, opipramol may be useful in the context of evening premedication in anaesthesiology. This trial examines whether quality of sleep the night prior to surgery can be improved by opipramol and whether this effect is dose dependent. A second objective of this study is to exam...
