Abstract
Summary
1. Intravenous reserpine treatmert produced behavioral changes in epileptic monkeys resembling those described for similarly treated normals; sialorrhea and tremors were noteworthy in the treated epileptic group. 2. Electroencephalograms of treated epileptic monkeys usually showed little change; 5 to 8/second wave activity of moderate amplitude sometimes was more prominent during lethargic phases. 3. Epileptic monkeys which were more refractory to clinical seizure activation by stick prodding at the height of the reserpine effect, remained highly responsive to activation by small doses of intramuscular Metrazol.®
