Effects of amphetamine on influenza virus infection in mice

M J Núñez et al. Life Sci. 1993.

Abstract

Several experiments were conducted to evaluate the effects of chronic amphetamine on the influenza A (PR-8/34) virus specific immune injury in CD-1 mice. Treatment with amphetamine resulted in a significant increase of lung virus titers and pulmonary vascular permeability. Amphetamine also increased the lethality of infected mice.
