El-Tayeb, Mohamed El-Shazly, Muhammad Torequl Islam, Heba A.S. El-Nashar

“…SEL (25 and 50 mg/kg) showed dose-dependent elevation in latency (133.20 ± 2.19 and 293.00 ± 5.27 s) and diminishment in the retching number (16.40 ± 1.15 and 9.40 ± 1.04 times), compared to control. Additionally, SEL can antagonize the activity of ondansetron (OND; 5 mg/kg) and domperidone (DOM; 7 mg/kg), resulting in a decrease in latency (256.00 ± 9.59 and 253.00 ± 2.79 s) and enhancing the number of retches (11.80 ± 0.82 and 12.60 ± 1.04) in combination rather than OND and DOM alone. …”
