Modulation of the effects of alcohol on driving-related psychomotor skills by chronic exposure to cannabis.

abstract：OBJECTIVES:Early onset of heroin use during adolescence might increase chances of later drug addiction. Prior work from our laboratory suggests, however, that adolescent male rats are actually less sensitive than adults to some enduring effects of heroin self-administration. In the present study, we tested two likely c...
