Brain GABA levels are reduced in alcoholic liver disease: A proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy study.

abstract：:The α1 -adrenergic antagonist, doxazosin, has improved cocaine use disorder (CUD) presumably by blocking norepinephrine (NE) stimulation and reward from cocaine-induced NE increases. If the NE levels for release were lower, then doxazosin might more readily block this NE stimulation and be more effective. The NE avail...
