Enhancement of morphine-withdrawal and apomorphine-induced aggression by clonidine

G Gianutsos et al. Psychopharmacol Commun. 1976.

Abstract

Clonidine, a proposed alpha-noradrenergic receptor stimulant, intensifies the aggression occuring during morphine-withdrawal or following the administration of apomorphine. The possibility of a noradrenergic/dopaminergic interaction in drug-induced aggression is discussed.
