research Pregnenolone for the treatment of L-DOPA-induced dyskinesia in Parkinson's disease
Pregnenolone might help manage movement issues caused by Parkinson's disease treatment without reducing the medicine's effectiveness.
research Inhibitory influence of agmatine on catamenial-like seizure susceptibility in progesterone withdrawn female rats
Agmatine may help reduce seizures linked to hormone changes in female rats.
research Seizure control and side-effect profile after switching adult epileptic patients from standard to extended-release divalproex sodium
Switching to extended-release divalproex sodium improved patient-reported tremor but did not change seizure frequency or most side effects.
research The steroidogenic inhibitor finasteride reverses pramipexole-induced alterations in probability discounting
Finasteride may help reduce impulsivity caused by pramipexole.
research Chronic progesterone treatment augments while dehydroepiandrosterone sulphate prevents tolerance to ethanol anxiolysis and withdrawal anxiety in rats
Progesterone increases alcohol tolerance and withdrawal anxiety, while DHEAS prevents them.
research Local Changes in Neurosteroid Levels in the Substantia Nigra Reticulata and the Ventral Tegmental Area Alter Chronic Ethanol Withdrawal Severity in Male Withdrawal Seizure‐Prone Mice
Ethanol withdrawal reduces the brain's response to certain calming steroids, making seizures harder to control.
research Sex and estrous cycle influence diazepam effects on anxiety and memory: Possible role of progesterone
Diazepam's effects on anxiety and memory differ between male and female rats due to hormonal influences.
research An Open Randomized Comparative Study of an Oral Contraceptive Containing Ethinyl Estradiol and Cyproterone Acetate with and without the GnRH Analogue Goserelin in the Long-Term Treatment of Hirsutism
The oral contraceptive alone is the preferred treatment for hirsutism, as adding the GnRH analog showed no significant benefit.
research Mechanisms responsible for progesterone's protection against lordosis-inhibiting effects of restraint II. Role of progesterone metabolites
Allopregnanolone, a progesterone metabolite, helps reduce restraint effects on behavior.
research 11β-Hydroxylase inhibitors protect against seizures in mice by increasing endogenous neurosteroid synthesis
11β-Hydroxylase inhibitors help prevent seizures in mice by boosting natural neurosteroid production.
research THE TREATMENT OF HIRSUTISM WITH A COMBINATION OF DESOGESTREL AND ETHINYL OESTRADIOL
A combination of desogestrel and ethinyl oestradiol effectively reduces hair growth in hirsute women.
research Neuroactive Steroids: Functions, Mechanisms of Action and Physiologic Relevance
Allopregnanolone may enhance alcohol's effects on dopamine neurons, influencing addiction risk.
research PROGRESSIVE SLEEP APNOEAS RESPOND TO MEDROXYPROGESTERONE ACETATE
Medroxyprogesterone acetate improved sleep apnea symptoms in some obese patients.
research Finasteride, a 5alpha-reductase inhibitor, blocks the anticonvulsant activity of progesterone in mice.
Finasteride, a drug, can block the seizure-preventing effects of a hormone called progesterone in mice.
research Allopregnanolone (AP) induces opioid inhibition of hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis responses to interleukin-1β (IL-1β) in pregnancy
Allopregnanolone and opioids together reduce stress hormone responses during pregnancy.
research A case of telogen effluvium associated with drug-induced hyperprolactinemia.
A woman's temporary hair loss was caused by high prolactin levels from her medication.
research Role of neurosteroids in the anticonvulsant activity of midazolam
Midazolam's seizure prevention is partly due to increased neurosteroid production.
research The involvement of the neurosteroid allopregnanolone in the antihyperalgesic effect of paroxetine in a rat model of neuropathic pain
Paroxetine relieves pain by increasing allopregnanolone levels.
research Finasteride/hypericum interaction
research Changes in expression of the δ subunit of the GABAAreceptor and in receptor function induced by progesterone exposure and withdrawal
Progesterone affects GABAA receptor function by altering δ subunit levels.
research Decreased allopregnanolone induced by hormonal contraceptives is associated with a reduction in social behavior and sexual motivation in female rats
Hormonal contraceptives may reduce social behavior and sexual motivation by lowering allopregnanolone levels.
research Prednisolone
A woman's hair grew back after she stopped taking the Parkinson's disease medication pramipexole.
research Allopregnanolone is required for prepulse inhibition deficits induced by D1 dopamine receptor activation
Allopregnanolone is needed for certain brain processing issues caused by D1 dopamine receptor activation.
research Evaluation of Hyperandrogenemia in Women with Prolactinoma
Treating prolactinoma doesn't significantly affect hirsutism or cause high androgen levels.
research The neurosteroid metabolite of progesterone, 3α‐OH‐dihydroprogesterone (3α‐OH‐DHP), is required for attenuated baroreflex mediated sympathoexcitation in pregnancy
3α‐OH‐DHP is essential for reducing nerve activity related to blood pressure control during pregnancy.
research Changes in Progesterone Metabolites in the Hippocampus Can Modulate Open Field and Forced Swim Test Behavior of Proestrous Rats
Lowering 3α,5α-THP in the hippocampus increases anxiety and depression in proestrous rats.
research Relating neurosteroid modulation of inhibitory neurotransmission to behaviour
Neurosteroids can influence behavior by modulating brain inhibition, with potential for treating psychiatric disorders.
research Profound bradycardia after addition of diltiazem to a beta blocker.
Adding diltiazem to a beta blocker can cause dangerously slow heart rates.
research Sequential estrogen-progestin addition to gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist suppression for the chronic treatment of ovarian hyperandrogenism: a pilot study.
The treatment effectively reduced hair growth and was safe for patients with PCOS, but it needs better bleeding control.
