TABLE 4.
Results of Schild analyses of antagonism of midazolam substitution for the discriminative stimulus effects of 1.0 and 2.0 g/kg ethanol by Ro15-4513 or flumazenil in cynomolgus monkeys
Apparent pA2 for individual monkeys was calculated when three or more shifts in the dose-response function (n) were obtained and the Schild slope was between −0.4 and −1.6. Apparent pKB was calculated when less than three shifts in the dose-response function (n) were obtained.
