abstract：:The anticonvulsant effect of the dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker, nimodipine (NMD) was evaluated against electroshock-induced seizures in mice. At 1 h postdosing, NMD elicited a dose-dependent reduction in the occurrence of tonic hindlimb extension (THE) after maximal electroshock (MES). The calculated ED50 fo...
