This study investigated the effects of acute doses of Ginkgo biloba extract (GBE) on memory and psychomotor performance in a randomized, double-blind and placebo controlled 5-way cross-over design. Thirty-one volunteers aged 30-59 years received GBE 150 mg (50 mg t.d.s), GBE 300 mg (100 mg t.d.s.),
The effects of single doses of trimipramine, a tricyclic antidepressant (25,50 and 100 mg) and placebo on psychomotor performance, memory, haemodynamics, pupil diameter and salivary volume, were assessed in 12 normal volunteers. All subjects received each of the four treatments, at weekly interval,
The effects of moclobemide, a new selective and reversible MAO-A inhibitor, on cognitive function and psychomotor performance were measured in 12 healthy elderly male volunteers (with a mean age of 72.5 years). Subjects received moclobemide 200 mg, amitriptyline (positive internal control) 25 mg or
The effects of a 10 day administration of clomipramine (25-50 mg t.i.d.), alprazolam (0.25-0.75 mg t.i.d.) and placebo were assessed in normal volunteers in a double-blind cross-over study. A battery of physiological, psychomotor and cognitive tests was administered both before and 3 h after drug on
